Well, it has been officially a month since I've been in India! + one day! The trip was truly amazing and I am so glad that I had the opportunity to visit a country that is so different than America. In India, the culture is so different. The people, the money, the transportation, school, time, comforts....nothing is the same. While I was there I saw so many people walking around looking for something they could not find. I realized that they had ANYTHING but Jesus in their lives. It really made me hurt for them and there was really nothing I could do. However, God spoke to me saying that it's at home too. All you have to do is look around and you will see it. The same thing many hurting and desperate people. I also had another time when my life was touched in a very special way. The Sunday prior to my leaving America, God gave a spoken word for me about my ministry. Basically saying that the walls of my ministry are going to come down. That I was going to be so full of love that it was going to be overflowing and more....I didn't know what that meant until I got to India. We went to the Hope Home where 32 children live with Beulah(their Mommy), David Sahyem(daddy), Smitha and Isaac(Beulah's daughter and son in law). These children really know what love is all about. They for one have been loved by God and two they have been accepted into the Hope family. From these children and Beulah, I learned what it's like to feel loved and how to love. I now have a love that I have never had before. It is now a love of deep concern and a love that I don't really understand. A more meaningful love that I can't explain or describe and its also overflowing in my heart and I don't know how to respond to it...I didn't realize that the walls of my ministry had come down until a few days later when I was journaling. Its so amazing how God works, he shows us something when we least expect it!
Well, these are only a few of the amazing things that happened while I was away! I plan to post more soon! Keep checking for updates!
