Oh Africa!

Tuesday-Thursday
Oh my goodness the Lord has been working on my heart. My desire is truly Ezekiel 36 where it says, “Lord remove from me a heart of stone… and then He will put His spirit in me.” I want JESUS’ heart. I DESIRE to see what He sees, to ACT like He does, to HONOR like He does, for my heart to break for what breaks His…that’s my desire. And He is doing that in me. Normally, I don’t cry in worship but lately I have just cried in worship or during a teaching because the Lord’s presence is so heavy on me. He is showing me how MUCH He loves ME. He is revealing so much to me. And He has been doing a lot of healing in my life. He has been showering down His love in my life.
If you don’t know… I dance (ballet) or warfare dance when the Holy Spirit comes upon me. I LOVE dancing unto the Lord. I LOVE it. I do it ALL the time. David danced unto the Lord! Anyways it was prophesied over me many times that I would show the people here how to dance in the spirit. Well, all 130 something students are CRAMMED in a hut for school and worship everyday so there is NO room for me to dance. And I try to go outside and but there are rocks and its not level ground and I have to wear shoes… it’s quite the adventure! I don’t look nearly as graceful here! Hopefully I can find some level ground to dance on soon. But I have a point and it’s this… yesterday I was dancing outside our school hut and I looked over and there were little girls watching me. It brought tears in my eyes. The prophecy was starting to come true. They have probably never seen ballet. Jesus is so sweet.
A friend and I are going to paint a mural in the kid’s library here. I am so excited about it! Can’t wait!
I’ve become and pro at washing my clothes by hand. Don’t worry…when I come home I’m definitely still going to use a washer though!
A few of us got to sit down with Will Hart yesterday. It was so awesome. It’s awesome to get to know these people and realize that they are ordinary. There is nothing extra special about them. They’re just people who LOVE Jesus and desire to do ANYTHING the Lord calls them to do. They’re just laid down Lovers of their King!
It’s been SO hot here the last few days. The missionaries have said it feels like their summer(October-December). So we all just sweat a lot because there are is no air condition or fans.
Sorry I haven’t been on the internet lately. It’s been down but it’s Africa… I will get on as much as possible!
There are two teams going out on outreach to spend 4 days in the village today. Please be praying for them! Pray the Lord would show them so much and His glory would FALL!
“Jesus, with my mouth I will make known your faithfulness known through all generations.” Psalm 89:1
Hope all of you is doing well!
