The news recently is I'm going to Thailand! Pattaya, Thailand to be exact! Thailand has been on my heart for awhile and I have bumped into a couple people here and there in the last 6 years who have really inspired me to look into the culture and the people in Thailand. I've grown to love all the different food, colors, and hospitable culture they carry. The sex slave/trade between young women and children is huge there and we will be working directly with these people to show them how great a people God sees them as. I have to come up with around $3000 (with money for bills and stuff when i'm gone) for the trip and I'm seriously believing since God put me on this trip He will bring about the finances. I don't know how that looks, but i'm excited to see how it unfolds. (no seriously He surprises me all the time.) These Nations are crying out for us! I know God put them on my heart for a reason and this is a part of my calling to minister to them and LOVE them. My deadline for the first deposit for the Trip is Dec 7th and its $270. If you feel lead to,
Give Here :).
I also got blessed with an amazing studio to do my friends hair here and there while I continue to look for a real job. My Heavenly Father knows me so well and He blesses me with the little things to! Most recently Bill Johnson has been speaking about stewarding our gifts and talents with all excellence as worship to God. This really has changed my perspective on everything because even in working on my homework now or talking to a friends about their life issues and i can even see that as being worship to God. I believe The Father wants to bless me, but He wont give his kids blessings if they continually fail to take care of what they already have. This chair above was only like $35 and that's just one example of the provision for the little things God has been faithful with.
The photo brings back some old memories. I remember standing next to my barracks and there would be several children standing looking at us trough a fence just like that one. I pray that God blesses your trip with many coming to faith. Wish I could go with you. You make your Opah proud.
