done.
It's been a long, full two weeks, but the hard part is finally done!
I have a day of office work tomorrow, Sunday school, then I'm free for a week. Huzzah!
Our missions week was surely blessed by God! This week I learned that God does not count success like we count sucess. My version of success would have been 10 kids involed in missions week, complete with games and amazing projects, topped off with a weekend retreat.
God's version was very different and so much better! Simple, intense discipleship with three boys. We didn't have the numbers to play a bunch of exciting games, but we did get in some really awesome discussion about the Greatest Commandment, The Great Commission, sharing the Gospel and sharing our testimonies. We served a neighboring church, a man who doesn't often leave his home, we re-did our youth room so that it looks AWESOME!!! and hosted a block-party for a neighboring apartment complex. The small group afforded more opportunities for daily teachable moments and I believe made a lasting impact on these boys and even the future of this church. I am amazed at how God worked and changed my attitude to align with His own vision. Through seasons of deep frustrations and discouragement, He has led me to a river of rejoicing. I am certain that He is with me in this ministry, and I know beyond a doubt that this is exactly where I'm supposed to be. Thanks for the prayers and keep them coming!!!
