I will, because You DID.


I will be submissive until the end
I will speak life to those around me
I will be humble, always
I will not live with a hard heart
I will give and live in faithful abundance
I will go when you say go
I will follow you where you lead me
I will lift my voice in praise to you
I will give thanks for your Creations
I will open my soul and heart to you
I will fall madly in love with you
I will listen
I will love, I will take love seriously
I will give you everything.

'He chose to give us'

I read James this morning and here are some key pieces I picked out:
'He chose to give us birth through the word of truth, that we might be a kind of firstfruits of all he created.'
'Do not merely listen to the word, and so deceive yourselves. Do what it says.'
'Speak and act as those who are going to be judged by the law that gives freedom, because judgment without mercy will be given to anyone who has not been merciful. Mercy triumphs over judgment! '
'You see that his faith and his deeds were working together, and his faith was made complete by what he did.'
'...no man can tame the tongue. It is a restless evil, full of deadly poison. With our tongue we praise our Lord and Father, and with it we curse men, who have been made in God's likeness. Out of the same mouth come praise and cursing. My brothers, this should not be.'
'Why, you do not even know what will happen tomorrow. What is your life? You are a mist that appears for a little while and then vanishes. Instead, you ought to say, "If it is the Lord's will, we will do this or that.'


Also, the DTS is going really well and I'm having a lot of fun :)
The lectures are incredible, the teachings are solid, and I'm seeing what needs to be fixed in my heart.
God is definitely transforming my soul. Making me a woman of His word, a woman after His heart.
Just to try and grasp His love makes my head spin although the picture of His love is becoming a little clearer.

Definitely hitting frustrations with the financial situation. Still owe $5,086 for the program and just meeting so much opposition, but this week more people in my family are speaking to me. I'm just praying for God to open the hearts of His people. Those who are able to support in prayer and financially of course.

I'm going to try and update more often, but until then here are some photos :)
Saying goodbye to a member of the Outreach Team! We love you!

 
Having fun before class!


Baking with our favorite French students!

This is the cafe area where the students can buy tea and coffee during their lunch break.

Cam! :)









I was not as good at baking as everyone else!

Playing around singing Adele on the guitar!

Singing some worship songs :D

Pray for these high school students to have their ears opened to the gospel and the power of Jesus Christ. As a believer we know how incredibly life transforming His love is.
