A shower on Gatwick airport brought me a revelation.. Why? Well , firstly the shower came with the expectation of docking up one pound for it. (after spending one night on a bus and the next two sleeping at different airports this was money to be spent very wisely!). Great was the joy then when we learned that one pound was only if you did not have your own toiletries and towel. Soon the three showers was taken over by myself and most of my teammates.   The joy over this shower then made me realise - He is the God who so often (daily!) provides in the small things while...

  Incredible India When the wheels of the Boeing 747 touched the runway all memories stopped and reality parked at the door of my heart. The summer heat of India embraced me like a loved one and it is holding as if in fear of losing me. The aroma of spices awakened my smell senses and familiarity rushed through my mind. The taxi ride was like a movie playing back a reminder of how incredible India is. The streets are filled with people, riksjas, bicycles, playing children, cows, busses, and cars.  The sound of business shouts from all the corners...

Since our arrival here in China almost three weeks ago, the Yellow Team (Huang Dui) already have much to report on and share from our hearts! Our team is healthy, excited, unified and humble in order to be used. We travelled from small town to small town for the past while and we did not not have any set program, fixed contact or set-up ministry as a 'what-to-do' so we had to pray about what to do in each town and to meet the right people. During this time we realised, individually and as a team, that we could not be...

I always thought I had to do everything alone, but these last 12 days, I realised I can't!! I also realised, I never did anything alone, God was always there!! He is our protector, our guide, our comforter and our friend!!
