This whole week has been pretty awesome as always, but the last few days especially. Friday we had an awesome day of being in God's presence and had an opportunity to lay things down giving them to God...I laid down 2 things:
-My passport: (of course i get it back!) as a symbol that I'm not going to focus on what parts of the world I want to see in my future, but what parts of the world God wants me to see
-my watch: i'm a huge time person and I gave up my watch because i want to focus on Gods time, not my time
We also had an amazing day of worship and it was cool to see some people really anointed with the Holy Spirit (some spoke in tongues, some just convulsed with the holy spirit)...I was completely ready to publicly declare my faith and I got baptized in the evening along with a couple others, after which we had communion.
Today we went to the beach and one van was already overheating on the way there, and on the way back it started smoking so we quickly got out and pushed it to the side of the road with the help of a couple helpful strangers behind us and Seth had contact with the base as the van started smoking...so help was on the way and we just chilled on the curb, still in pretty good spirits. After awhile we just spoke out this list of things we were grateful for and right after that this lady approached us and asked if we were ok and if we needed anything, and that she runs a Christian organization in town. (she noticed the YWAM Oxford on the van). Katie said it would be great to fill up her water bottle so headed to this lady's place, and they came back with jugs of water and homemade cupcakes. It was such a blessing! We got to talk to the lady for a bit about her ministry and she told us a few cool examples of how God provides which was totally sweet...and blessed us all before she had to get back home. So in the end, it was actually good that the van overheated cuz we got to meet this lady...ttyl!
