Blessed Be Your Name

YESU ALAMASIFU! (Jesus!) The other day as I was spending time with God, He showed me my verse for my time here in Africa. Matthew 12:21 simplfies the ministry I have been doing here in the beset of words:
"In His name the nations will put their hope!"
My task has been to spread the name of Jesus throughout my village. This verse just captured my heart that morning I read as I sat in awe looking back at the past weeks at how much of Alkwara (my village) knew that Dani and I were Christians and were here to tell them about Jesus. God has been guiding us each step of the way and been giving me wisdom- the two things Dani and I have prayed for everyday we have been in the bush. Jesus is the only hope for these people whom I have come to love and cherish and "everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved!" (Joel 2:32) There is so much power in just the name of Jesus!

I now only have seven more days left in the bush. I will most likely be going back to the bush tonight by myself. Dani is very sick and will be staying in Niamey to get rest. So please keep her in your prayers that God will heal her and she can spend as much time as she can with our village. Also pray for me as it will be myself and the Africans. I'm kind of excited about it though :-)

I don't have time to list specfic prayer requests this time, but just continue to pray!!!! God knows what I need and when I need it. He also knows the hearts of these people and those whom are searching. My time here is coming to an end and it really hurts to think about the future (the next two weeks). Good-byes will be hard because part of my heart will be left here just as it was in Serbia and its not so easy coming back home.

I love you all and I'm doing wonderful!
