Monsoon Madness!!

So much has happened over the last week! Here is a list of just the few things that we’ve done:
• made the front page of a newspaper
• ridden a camel




• gone to an orphanage




• spent a day in the park playing village games with nationals
• gotten the grand tour of a nursing college and hospital
• worshipped with nationals in Hindi


• gotten caught in the monsoon


• shared with people in the malls
• dialogued in English classes with nationals trying to learn English
• gone to universities
• And spent time with the Vision team!

I think that all of as a team would agree that we have discovered that we on our own are very weak. Our flesh and body have failed us. But we have hope because we know that “It is God who works in us to will and to act according to his good purpose” Phillipians 2:13. How awesome to know that nothing we do is of own doing- our desire to hate sin, love people, and be sanctified comes only from the L@rd. The Word is sufficient! So pr@y that we would stay in the Word and that we would grow more and more humble and dependent on the Spirit each day.

As a team, we’ve recently been going through Phillipians 2:1-18. As I read, memorize, and meditate on this Scripture, I’m blown away by the amazingness of the g@spel. And I am reminded of the humility of my S@vior. And we are called to have this same humility. Pr@y that in every situation, in every conversation, and in every moment that we would live lives worthy of the gospel.
