We are in the top four teams left in the dance off, I still don't know how because I would be on "Canada's worst dancer," we are out of ides and have 3 more dances to make up... Teamwork.

We have just lugged all our equipment through the woods, paddled it across the lake and now we have to set up camp. No tents, no toilets, limited cooking supplies. Everyone is hungary, everyone wants to help... Teamwork. 

Expectations, Iniquities, transgressions, sins, offenses, Holy spirit... Poured into.

Personal time, worship, teachings, prayer time... God time.

Healing, forgiveness, surrender, identity, heartbreak... Refreshed

This is training camp.

 "Where you go I'll go, what you say I'll say God, What you pray I'll pray, what you pray I'll pray"

Hello there

So I have been putting his blog entry off because it really made me think "what are my expectations for this missions trip?"

I expect to share the Gospel in a practical and loving ways.

I expect to see the power of God at work and to see his Kingdom come.

I expect to be pushed to my absolute limit of stress and of patients but I expect to depend on God in these times.

I expect to have my heart broken time and time again for the broken, for the hurt, for the injustice, for the hungry, for the homeless, for the fatherless, for the motherless, for the addicted, for the sick, and for the lonely.  But I expect to bring the Grace, the love, the forgiveness, the healing power and the hope of our God almighty.

I expect to be humbled over and over. To be required to be completely selfless.I expect to learn the true meaning and importance of community.  Philippians 2:3-5 "Don't be selfish; don't try to impress others. Be humble, thinking of others as better than yourself. Don't look out only for your own interests, but take  an interest in others, too. You must have the same attitude that Christ Jesus had"

I expect to have my faith tested and in that testing I expect to grow closer to God and my undstanding of my faith. James 1:2-4 "Consider it pure joy, my brothers, whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith develops perseverance. Perseverance must finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything."

I expect to be lonely but to find companionship in God.

I expect to find where God wants me and how he wants to use me when this trip is over.

I expect to experience the ultimate joy and happiness in seeing God at work in and through my team members and I through our spiritual gifts. 1 Corinthians 12:4-7 "There are different kinds of spiritual gifts, but the same Spirit is the source of them all. There are different kinds of service, but we serve the same Lord. God works in different kinds of ways, but it is the same God who does the work in all of us. A spiritual gift is given to each of us so we can help each other."

I expect to be blown away by God at work and to see his beauty and plan in every person we encounter and every place we travel to.

I expect my life to be changed!

I AM SO EXCITED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
