I have to keep this one short, not because there is not much to say but fully because there is not much time for me to write. This week has been very busy but very productive. I have spent a lot of time thinking and praying about and for people and things, as well as running and planning a lot of program and ministry for the upcoming weeks. Basically I've spent an obscene amount of time in front of the computer (which now miraculously has power after an odd run in with a broken power adapter) writing and even more time in meetings. And for all of those who care, I've done three loads of laundry and have sausages thawing on the kitchen counter... which all adds up to make the most productive week yet. I am now really beginning to find a good groove in my ministry placement and enough comfort with the culture to lose my awkwardness with the people. I am ever more pleased and excited about this experience and all that it's teaching me.
Quite a few posts ago I mentioned at least two people who I was meeting pretty consistently in coffee shops and through different ministry outlets... well I am overjoyed to say that they have both decided to follow Jesus with their lives. Praise the Lord with me, and pray for their journeys for they both have very hard times ahead. This is extremely encouraging for me to see the Lord working through me this way, and it has made all the money and time of this trip well worth it. There is nothing better, and I praise and thank the Lord for using me.
There are still plenty of people I am in regular contact with who still need prayer. That people here would come to see and know the greatness of God. Also if you would continue to pray for me - I have a lot of decisions to be made in this next week about my near future and figuring out where God wants me, so please pray that the Lord would be with me and guide my thoughts and decision making.
I am in Edinburgh, Scotland over the next week so my next post may not be for two weeks rather than one.
Thank you, your prayers are felt and yet evermore needed.
