life, among other things

 
hello one and all..
 
Today is a rather brisk Tuesday and I wanted to share a bit. Its been very busy but also good. I am  really kicking myself that I don't do this more often...I really do have so much to share and I always feel so pressed for time! so...here's a fun story.
 
This past week we had a group of 9 people come YWAM Germany. They came to help us and serve us at the Cleft for 9 days. I was really able to be a part of there time here. I was there leader on Tuesday afternoon evangelism ministry in the Red Light District. Also, 3 of the guys came and played soccer with on Wednesday. Then on Thursday 4 of them staffed the open-hall ministry to the homeless and lonely guys which was a huge success. But, the culmination of the week (in my eyes) was on Friday. I found out that I was only person from my team available (and qualified) to teach them on Abuse, Addiction and Recovery related topics. This was big step for me. I have taught and preached many times, but never on these specific topics. So I spend a evening reviewing my material and drawing up my outline, and taught for 2 hours that next day. I spoke in English and then one of the girls translated it into Dutch. Wow, it was SOOOO powerful. I felt so blessed to be used in that way by God. They were able to share stuff and speak about abuse that they had suffered in life, I was able to share stories and healing from my own life..It was beautiful for sure. So that's me and a bit of whats going on it my life...take care all...stay in touch!
 
in Him...will
