Inspiration

I got a basket full of lemons and they all taste the same
a window and a pigeon with a broken wing;
You can spend your whole life working for something
just to have it taken away...
But love will come set me free,
love will come set me free
I do believe!
Love will come set me free,
I know it will.

It's like FRICKIN Bambi!

Jambo! (honestly, still the extent of my Swahili here kids....)


**the title is a quote by Sarah on the team while on safari...so good.


Things have been going very well...we worked with some different children's homes on Thursday and got to pray for their staff. We also got to hear God for them, which is something we have been training and working in. It's so surreal to me that I am actually hearing the literal word of God for someone else AKA Prophecying...I will def. be sharing what I have learned about that with you when I get home, because I don't have much time and its a HUGE thing.

Friday morning rolled around, and all I remember is waking up at 7 AM in front of the toliet! I got really sick with something on Thursday night, and was sick the whole night...not fun. I literally felt like I was going to die, which is NOT good in Africa! The team prayed for me, and I was able to go on the Safari, but the drive was terrible...probably the worst I have felt in my life. I unfortunatley had to miss the first day of the safari because I had to rest. It was a bummer, but I am glad I got better because I was able to go on Safari Saturday. We went to the Ngoragora crater...it was unbelievable! I have a ton of pictures, but the coolest thing was being arm's distance from a lioness and her cub! It was really special to see God's creation, honestly we were saying how could someone see all this and not believe that God created it? I don't know.

We drove home from the crater and rested for church in the morning. We woke up early this morning, and I am still feeling a little uneasy, but I think we are all just tired. We went to church, and spent about 3 hours singing and dancing! One thing I def. am more passionate about after coming here is seeing kids worship! God has placed that on my heart and hopefully I will be able to work on that in the states when I return! We are playing at the orphanage right now, and probably resting tonight! I am running out of time...so that's all for now.

Keep us in your prayers, only a week until we come home! Miss you all and love you! If I don't write again, see you Tuesday =]
