The
team has finally embarked on a great journey. We left the airport not fully
knowing what to expect. We may be ready in a physical sense, but our emotions,
and spiritual life will be tested in all areas on this trip. When we first
arrived, the thing that stood out the most was the sheer chaos that is called
traffic. There is no rhyme or reason to it. People drive while straddling the
road lines, horns going off in every car, and cars so close you could easily
reach out and touch them. However, regardless of the trials and dangers we may
face, Christ is made greater when we become lesser. Our reliance on The Lord
will be our guide, and prayer will be our hope. Please continue to pray for us
as we become a beacon of light in a dark place, pray that the gospel will
spread like a wildfire, and pray the enemy will be kept at bay. C.H. Spurgeon
says: "If sinners be damned, let them leap to hell over our bodies."
There is an urgency here, and we must be obedient to the Fathers guidance.
We go out today to a Hindu temple, a Sikh temple, and a Muslim mosque. We will witness cremations, scattering of ashes, and just how they conduct themselves in worship. We will certainly pray over Gods hand to work in these areas. Prayer walking will take great precedence on this trip, for prayer is the slender nerve that moves the hand of God in these places. Pray for divine appointments so we may meet with individuals and share our story. Our personal story will be one of the greatest ways to capture ones heart. Pray for us to have comfort in sharing and comfort in an unknown place and people, and that we may have confidence. Any leader is measured and judged by there followers, and likewise Christ is judged and measured by our actions in being His followers. Thank you for your love, prayers, and encouragement in this time! May God bless you as you go out during your day!
