I write all that is below because I feel I should share a glimpse, and that is all it is, of what I have come home from. I share it with you not to make you jealous, but to create within you a longing for the things of God. We are too content. Thats what was revealed to me this morning at church, I called people to hunger, thirst, longing, to want to chase after Him, to see His words bear fruit. Read what God has said He will do, read what Jesus said about Himself and his kingdom and our authority, read it and then declare it. We are living with the bar set too low, we are far too satisfied and content with where we are and the tiny things we are asking for. How big is your God? I ask again, how big is your God? Sit under His waterfall, ask for Him to fill you so that you might be brimming, that you might be poured out to everyone you come into contact with. Stop being comfortable and satisfied. Divine discontent. I dare you to pray for it ;)

Omw omw omw I can barely write straight! Evening acoustic worship session with the america team under the milky way on the porch of our houses in the dirt and the sand facdown on our knees. sheeeeee it was incredible. I am so overwhelmed by God, He gave a promise to us all of a gift of permanence, HALLELUJAH!!! I prayed for people, was unable to get up cos His presenve was seriously SO heavya dn strong. Then a Mozambqcan child called Rosa came over and whispered in my ear and floored me completely lying with my face pressed into the grubby red sand. She spoke that God had something special in store for me and that I am his beloved and He loves me and some other secret things :) I dont care that my skirt got coered in dirt, that i was breathing in the stuff, we soaked in Jesus for over 2 hours under the stars. I received vision yes, praise God, but also a word which has struck a very deep chord and I know will change me from inside out this whole trip.

Be quick to listen and slow to speak.
God told Rosa He wanted me to stop trying to show Him things and just to spend time with Him. Hallelujah hallelujah. THankyou Jesus. Gloria Dios. Amen
Two plus two just equaled four....
Yeah so things take me a while ;) On my knees and face in the dirt tonight under thousands upon thousands of estrellas I asked the Lord for the gift of permanence. Only now do I realise He gave me that gift. It has nothing to do with a passive mind state precipitated by the Lord against our will or while we are apathetic and get on with life to create some false permanent existence of Him or the feeling of Him. The answer was whispered to me by the beautiful new sister of mine and her hands were on my back. 'He doesnt want you to show him how much you love him, but to spend time with him'
Right there, so obious I almost missed it. How? Daily bread, minute by minute submission and seeking and hungering and time at His feet, sacrifice, devotion, worship, worship, worship. EVERY SINGLE DAY. No longer will I let this slip, the responsibility is mine always has been, I am sorry Lord, I repent for my apathym I stand against distraction in el nome de Jesus Christo. In the Name of Jesus.
Teehee, the toilet just overflowed ;) had to share it with you! we are in africa after all! praise God we have such a wonderful bathroom to begin with! although we have to keep all our used loo paper in a bin instead of flushing it which is grooooss!! ;)
Anyway, now I should sleep. There is so much in my mind my heart and my spirit. I cannot comprehend. I still have no answers form God on other stuff I am asking Him but it just doesnt matter now, you hear me? Nothing matters now excpet Him. Beautiful beautiful beautiful God. Hallelujah. Goodnight
Amen
