God is working! Last night seven of the girls decided to trust Christ as their personal Savior! Praise the Lord! One of the girls even wrote a worship song in response to her new relationship with Christ. The words go like this:
I would like to say thank You
I would like to glorify Your name (x2)
Thank You for the gift of life
Thank You for protection
Thank You for the family
Thank You for everyone of us
I can’t wait to see what God does through her as He continues to sanctify her and put a heart of worship inside of her!
Personally, this has been the most rewarding part of the trip so far. As John Piper says “Missions exist because worship doesn’t.” Therefore the purpose of missions is to glorify God and to make him known; specifically by helping others become worshippers of Him. It gave me so much joy to see God transforming this girl into a worshipper of Him! I can’t wait to see what else he does!
I would say more but it is 1:00am in Kenya right now and so I should probably get some sleep lol...Thanks for praying and being involved in what God is doing!
In Christ,
Josiah
