Sleeping At Last

I love the song of this band and the more I listen, the more captivated I become! I have been listening to their song "East" and the lyrics make me think.

"Now I bear little resemblance to the king I once was.
I bear little resemblance to the king I could become.
Maybe paper is paper, maybe kids will be kids-
Lord, I want to remember how to feel like I did."

Pieces of Mozambique

Here are some moments from my life in Mozambique!! Going into villages means there are lots of new friends to spend time with. We sing songs and dance together. We paint their nails and they give us mangoes.  While leaving one of the villages, the locals were singing outside our caravan. So of coarse, being a Mozambican, this little guy started to dance!!! He was so cheeky but he had good moves.  As 250 people from 30 different nations came together for this season with Iris Global, Mozambican pastors from all over the country also came to get training at a Bible School Iris offers. We had so much fun coming together in the presence of God. Mozambicans have so much passion and joy. It is beautiful!! Life looks very different in the cities then in the village. Because we were a truck load of while people, many would come to sell us fruit, bread, cokes and fried food. Sometimes it was exactly what we needed to get through our road trips ...

Steps of faith

Part of Worshiping God is testifying what He is doing and give Him the glory for those things. Sometimes this is much easier to do when God has come through and we look back and declare His goodness.

I don't really know the answer but I think Faith and the Holy Spirit's leading has to do with it. God can give you hope in your situation and His voice gives us what is needed to hold to the vision and persevere through the hard times. So this brings me to what I want to share.

So as I begin a new week and am moving forwards, I felt that I needed to testify to what God is doing! I need to have faith. After buying my tickets I had about $100 in my bank account. Because of being given th...
