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 ;)

We went with the kids to their casas this evening to see where they live and sleep and to wish them Bon nuit and saw all the widows and house mothers and the community they have up there. There is a fenced in toddler house with about 30 under 4's which is gorjuss and each of the rooms is in age and gender order. Esperanza was the girl I loved on most this evening, esta una bonita chica and we looked at the estrellas and the milky way together. I love outside, I'd almost prefer to sleep out there!

Tday was the first day I seriously asked Jesus if this was where I am meant to live. The answer? I dont think so permanently, but this is not the last time I will be here by far, that IS for certain. I love it, my mind asks, how does this fit with this and this and what youv said about that and how can it fit and....nope, Im just gonna keep on loving. It'll come :)

God is so so good, so lovely, so bonita, gloria gloria alleluia

y ahora? ora...to prayer x
