Chapter Fifteen

After coming home from Australia and finding I had a lot more time on my hands, I knew it was a chance to do some reading for fun. When I was younger my family would listen to the Chronicles of Narnia on tape when we went driving. Now that I am older and realize how profound C.S. Lewis actually is, I chose to start with the Magician's Nephew. I finished it this week and at reading Chapter 15's title I can see God encouraging me again. I just finished my Story in Brisbane and now it is the beginning of all the others. So In my season here in Michigan, i am not sure what it will look like, or where to next. But God's timing is perfect. So one day at a time and each one holds promises of getting to know Him more.
Oh, I enjoyed the book and it reminds me of the wonder and awe of God. Also, how sometimes He asks us to do things and it doesn't make sense. However, our obedience and faithfulness allows Him to open new doors. He sees what we cannot and is so full of Grace for us. I like Him.

Airlie Beach

Hello there, sorry about taking forever to update!! So last week I went on a 16 hour road trip (not including the stops and such) to Airlie Beach. Its this Beautiful location right on the ocean and a group of about 20 people from my DTS went there to help with schoolies. Schoolies is a big party after the Australians graduate High school. Its a big celebration put on by the government that not only involves theme parties and loud music but also drinking, drugs, abuse, and even deaths. During these weeks of partying students get into about everything imaginable. My team went into this environment with the intention of simply loving these young people and showing them we cared. We set up what was called the chai tent. it was a big tent, and inside we set up little tables with pillows around them and we served free slushies and chai tea. As groups would come in some of us would just sit and talk to them and as we got to know them we would ask a little bit about what they believed when

a lovely little update :)

Hey there, So after the week in Airlie there was a week on Spiritual Warfare and then a week of Father Heart of God. Both weeks were amazing!!! Spiritual warfare is something I really didn't know much about and it is something I have a bit of a hard time understanding, but it is very real and so powerful. We have so much authority against Satin and it goes unrecognized and that isn't good. Father Heart of God week made me really begin to appreciate my dad, and the rest of my family, and also it gave me a clearer perspective in seeing God as my father and daddy. Then a very cool guy named Mark Parker from New Zealand came and helped us really surrender ourselves to God and the Holy Spirit. He spoke all week on Lordship. Then Friday we began at 8:30 in the morning and all together experienced an amazing transformation till 2:30ish in the morning on Saturday. We went through different steps as a school and did different things like giving thanks, worshiping, giving burnt offeri

Greeting from Michigan!! I have 3 weeks to go until I am required to be in Pemba, Mozambique! I have no idea what to think or feel, but I am definitely excited and also facing a lot of the unknown. I miss being in the ywam Gold Coast community very much, but i know that God has a plan bigger and better then mine. So I am proclaiming in Faith that I will be in Africa in a few weeks! As of right now I do not have enough funds to get flights or apply for a visa, but God is providing in different ways and I hope to have flights by the end of the week and a my visa application in the mail. Please consider giving towards these needs through my Gofundme Campaign. It is easy to give a one time gift and every bit helps. Here is a link to the page. . . .
