Quick update:


The most epic song about the game of Chess circa 1984 (also about Bangkok!). Also made me laugh a lot!


Last night as I was journaling I was thinking about what I have learned so far and what this trip has been, and a few of the thoughts I had were as follows.

-We got here and I expected to hit the ground running (like most missions trips I have been on), but I found that I couldn't. We arrived on a holiday weekend and the ministries have all been very low key. I was praying about it and asking God what I should be doing, and He communicated to me that I need to not be discontented in the lack of tangible ministry, but to be content and trust that I am in His will. This sent my brain into a lot of thought (could be why I hardly slept last night). I have a feeling that this trip down South is going to be a time where I learn to minister to the Lord, in refreshed ways. In order for the Lord to do His will for this trip I think He needs to do some heart work and then ministry will flow from a fresh heart. Gosh, I feel like it has been such a long time since I have really allowed, or even asked the Lord to truly work on my heart and refresh me. Don't let routine and business make your heart grow cold! I luckly think I have caught mine before it became cool. What an amazing journey Poppa is taking us on!!
