its gonna be worth it.

so i have decided that its gonna be worth it all. Everything I have to surrender, everything I have to sacrifice..for the sake of knowing God and making Him known...its gonna be worth it.

Its amazing how He works. This weekend I have been fighting some spiritual warfare just about who i am in Christ and my worth..Just feeling super worthless..knowing that the enemy thinks he has the stronghold and trying to use that against me...good thing for me...I HAVE CHRIST. He has the Authority. Its amazing how he works.

Its amazing how when you get the opportunity to just get away with the Lord and truly seek Him, how you will find Him. How he speaks to you. How he desires you. Reveals himself to you. loves you. Today was really amazing. I went to church by myself at my favorite church here in Perth. God really took advantage of the time that I was using to just seek Him. As I was just asking Him to meet me in the sanctuary, He totally showed up. Bringing me to the story in Matthew 9 about the woman who reaches out and touches Jesus' cloak.

v.20-22
Just then a woman who had been subject to bleeding for twelve years came up behind him and touched the edge of his cloak. She said to herself "If I only touch his cloak, I will be healed."
Jesus turned and saw her. "Take heart daughter," he said, "your faith has healed you." And the woman was healed from that moment.

It was amazing because as I was praying into this, thinking about that my faith looked like with Jesus, thinking about my lack of faith so to speak, I just began to ask the Lord for more faith. He kept reminding me how Christ is the AUTHOR and PERFECTER of my faith.. PERFECTER!!!! Can you believe that? He wants to perfect my, our faith. WOW! That's all i can say...

As worship ended and the sermon began, the pastor started to speak on that verse. WOW. God was really preparing me to hear him today. God just kept speaking to me about faith.

Over and over he has been speaking to me about HEBREWS 11..He wants us to earnestly seek Him.

To live is CHRIST..to die is GAIN!

God is good. sooo good.

Prayer Requests:
Casey's Brothel- that God would be fighting for these women. That they would accept our love tomorrow when we go to bring flowers to them.

Leeander- a boy we met outside the brothel, waiting for His friend. That he would begin to seek out truth, that God would begin to capture his heart again as he already knows truth.

Sickness- There are a lot of students on the DTS who are sick right now, We are all beginning to feel attacks from the enemy regarding our immune systems...He has no stronghold here.

Justin- one of our fellow DTS students who is in the hospital right now, they arent quite sure what is wrong with Him. Just be praying for a speedy recovery and that there would not be anything seriously wrong.

Marie Anne- A christian lady who's husband just walked out on her, Just that she would feel her worth in Christ. That she would know that Christ is her Rock. That he is her Lover and he delights in her, Even though our flesh fails us, that other humans fail us, that Christ WILL NOT fail us.

Mirrabooka- This is an intense suburb of Perth that we have been doing evangelism to the past month, God's presence just isnt really known here but we have been bringing His love to the refugees there. There has been a lot of violence there lately. May God's power rain down.

God's Direction- I feel like God is calling me into Missions, more specifically human trafficking. I pray that God would begin to reveil more and more about what this would look like. How and where he wants to use me, domestically, internationally, more training or straight into ministry? I know He is faithful to give an answer. I am just focusing on waiting patiently for His timing.

Finances- I still need $$ for outreach, also if God is calling me into Ministry/Missions full time, I need PROVISION for school loans. I am learning to have FAITH in Him. He is my father and he will not let me down. Pray that I would be doing the possible so that he may take care of the impossible.

Thank you sooo much for all your prayers!!!
