Dear Family in Christ,
Forgive me for taking so long since my last update on my trip to Africa. Since graduating from media school in Jerusalem, it’s like the enemy took advantage of all emotions and pulled me as low as he could. For awhile now, I’ve been struggling to keep on my feet. I’ve even felt that my Christian walk has been in jeopardy. This morning I prayed for help. By His grace, he sent it to me. It’s as though He woke me up from a deep sleep and now He’s putting me back on the right path giving me purpose again. As I was walking home that night, I could hear Him say “Keep walking and I will direct your feet”.
It’s very easy to loose sight of your purpose and make soft, easy choices which eventually put you to sleep in your faith. That is what the enemy wants us to do, and he succeeded with me for awhile. The devil must have forgotten that when I was a young child, I prayed that God would protect me from falling away from Him. Indeed, He heard my prayer all those years ago. He keeps me in His sight and gives me purpose for living.
I have been called to serve the Lord in Africa. Yes, it does worry me a bit because I am an easy target for mosquitoes (which carry Malaria) and am not particularly a strong enough guy to defend off attacks from lions; however, I have no choice but to obey the Lord. If He is calling me to go, then I must go, even if it does include facing a lion for a lost soul (may the Lord be with me). I’m asking that we work together in accomplishing the goal of spreading the gospel to foreign countries wether by prayer, donations, or both. Below are details of my trip:
