The Great Wall

Ready, set, take off.......Many people asked me before leaving, am I ready, how do I feel, am I excited?? Waiting for 6 years or more, to enter the promise of China on a  long term/full time basis and now becoming a reality. The answer was mixed. The familiar feeling of I'm leaving what I know and the people I know, to the unknown. The mixed feelings of excitement and I can't believe I'm doing this...the dream becoming a reality!  That's where the step of faith comes in. We discover by experience and at first hand. And Him being with us in it. It took me a while to realise I had moved to China and not just visiting or should I say it took me a number of days to say I've moved to China as people were asking me how long am I here for and also for someone to say to me you have moved here, start telling people that.

As I set foot on this beloved land once again. There was that sense of familiarity. It was a feeling of almost relief mixed with much excitement. The enjoyment of being here, knowing it's His joy as well. The sense of Him smiling with laughter as the gladness surrounds:) Knowing that I am in line with His will. And surely the blessings will flow and that they did, over and above in abundance and ever to continue:)

On the Wall with Northbound girls:)

The first month was trusting Him in all and going where the Spirit led. With lots of travelling, meeting other M's/local believers, set up, joining with Northbound and going to different min locations, bringing encouragement, being encouraged, receiving the blessings and also being the blessing. To live the surrendered life completely for Him and His glory. The heart beat that beats as one. The harvest is truly plentiful here.....:)
