“Not talking about it doesn’t make it not exist.” is my thought of the night. I just shared part of my testimony here. I began with admitting it has never gotten easier to share. Every week when I confess my sins at CR, it seems just as hard.
After writing this, it occurs to me that the reason it is probably always just as hard to tell is because I keep focusing on my weakness instead of His greatness. Maybe if I told my story a bit more focused on Who it says He is instead of who it says I was, it would be easier to tell.
Stomach is seriously suffering tonight. Hoping it will be better soon.
Today was amazing. It is at the point in the trip I no longer have to reserve any energy for later in the week. I can go all out and use all my energy in the next two days. I am so glad.
I sat down and had about an hour conversation with one of the men who run the orphanage this afternoon. It appears we have a similar vision for what could be provided for these children. Thinking back on this experience makes me think how talking about things and being transparent even when it comes to dreams and visions, takes so much of my fear away.
For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. Then you will call on me and come and pray to me, and I will listen to you. You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart. I will be found by you,” declares the Lord, “and will bring you back from captivity. I will gather you from all the nations and places where I have banished you,” declares the Lord, “and will bring you back to the place from which I carried you into exile.” – Jeremiah 29:11-14
