Over a month into this adventure and the time has come for me to play blog catch up! It seems that 12 years of perfecting my procrastination skills isn't a skill easily dropped.
Welcome to Global Challenge!

'It is no longer i who lives but christ who lives in me'' Gal 2vs20
Trying to sum up the last weeks is a futile attempt as so much has happened that my words have already began to fail me. Not just the events that happened but the work that God has began in all our hearts. The year ahead is full of the expectations of the impossible because we serve the God of the impossible or rather the seemingly impossible and nothing is impossible for God.
This is an incredible adventure that i have stunbleld into , not entirely sure what I am getting myself in for and still not certian of what will happen. But God awnsered that question when He called me and said I love you before you even had the ability to breathe I Loved you. So this is what i am sure of, this is what i am walking, what i walked into the moment i was saved, Love, because God is Love and He is perfect, his sacrificial love has saved me. I am blessed and feel privileged beyond words to be apart of Gods plan. It seams that God has always had a bigger plan for me than I have ever had for myself. This incredible journy has already started and with it no lack of bumps in the road a am full aware that this is not an easy road i am journeying on but what a beautiful adverture it is, i am not alone where ever i go and i will never be God is with me and so i stand strong and courageous (Joshua 1vs 9).
Infinítely great ,completely good, all powerful, completely indescribable, we stand in wonder awe-struck wonder. And He is moving , He is at work, changing hearts and minds. As we learn to let go and let God, i am fulled with excitement, to be his hands and feet to see all he has to show us, that he has brought us here to show us that we might bear witness to all that he is going to do this year (Ezekiel 40vs 4). To listen and hear and see, to stand in his blessing to run and dance and live to shout victory and cry freedom. To suffer for Christ and posses nothing ,to pursue God, To walk in the light , inherit the kingdom and know that it is not us who dose or makes any of this possible, in fact if it was even slightly up to us in any way what so ever the world would be doomed but instead it has nothing to do with us and everything to do with our Lord and saviour so we declare that were nothing without him but in him all things are possible. Nothing i have said here is new so be hungry we serve a living God who is at work never changes for he is perfect and always good.
All he asks of us is that we SIMPLY COME.. take him up on his offer and live, truly live and in our weakness His strength is made perfect his glory is more justly displayed when we are weak and he shines through. simply come
The rest is up too Him, as it always has been
So WATCH THIS SPACE!
Expect the unexpected.
We have decided to follow Jesus, No turning back no turning back.

Hey best friend,
Starting at varsity has shell-shocked me a bit and your words have encouraged and inspired me to "simply come", in life we tend to over complicate things and it doesn't need to be this way when it comes to our Lord. I pray that even though we are apart God will set our hearts on fire for Him and we will be a display of His light wherever we go.
Keeping you in my prayer, my beautiful awesome friend
Love and miss you tons!
