Aug 10 | He hears even when we don’t speak

I wish I could say that my faith is always strong and that my trust in Him is limitless… but I can’t. My faith and trust fail more than I care to admit- even on the mission field.

Last week I was teaching in Yorkton and Canora. On Friday as I was on my way to my second last club, I was praying. As I was giving the club to the Lord I was about to ask Him for the chance to help lead one more kid to Him that week… but I changed my mind. The club I was headed to was an older club (age 10-12) all of which seemed very disinterested in the club. I didn’t think any of the kids would want to follow Christ and I didn’t want to ask for something that I didn’t think could happen.

But God is answering prayers and working even when my faith and trust is small or nonexistent. He led one girl to Himself in that club.

I am so thankful that God’s power isn’t limited to the size of my faith.

In total, six kids did a 180 with Jesus in Yorkton and Canora this week 🙂

“Pray also for me, that whenever I open my mouth, words may be given me so that I will fearlessly make known the mystery of the gospel.” Ephesians 6:19

To sum up last week:

-There was a really intense tornado in the area I was in (it was on the ground for 2 and a half hours) BUT God is good and He protected the towns I was in. Plus there don’t seem to be any reported injuries from it!

-Despite the crazy weather, 9 kids came to Christ! And many seeds were planted as I had mostly kids who had zero background knowledge of anything religious or spiritual.

This week I’m teaching in Yorkton and Canora and I’m really looking forward to it! Although, I am already really tired and the week hasn’t even started yet. This weekend took a lot out of me as there have been a few major things going on in my personal life which have been emotionally and spiritually exhausting.

The enemy is definitely trying to use these situations to weaken my impact in these clubs this week so I would really appreciate your prayers for strength.

Prayer:

  1. Energy and rest so that I can give it 110% in each of my clubs
  2. Soften hearts for both kids and parents
  3. Peace and strength in my own heart concerning the situations going on in my life.
  4. Safety on the roads

Thank you for all of your prayers! And a special thanks for the encouragements and prayers from my CG- May God bless you for the work you are doing for the ministry behind the scenes.

“Now to Him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, to Him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, for ever and ever! Amen.” Ephesians 3:20-21
