It's a new day and an exciting one :) It's been a hard first month or so adjusting to being off of night watch, but the hand of the Lord is very present and tangible in my life. I KNOW that I have heard His voice, I know that He is still speaking and that there are wonderful, exciting adventures ahead :) God is faithful, and soooo kind!
He is bringing so many things together. There have been pieces that He was forming in me and they have sprouted and grown together beautifully! I don't see the grand view of the "garden" He's cultivating in me, but I sense things moving into place, shifting, sliding; like the clink of a door when it locks in place, or the sound of the new crisp puzzle piece locking in place with another piece. Ever so subtle, but delightfully pleasing. I "hear" the sounds of closure and completion to places in my life, though I haven't seen the fruition or the actual culmination of things YET.
Maybe it's better said like this: I'm a child that hears my father at work in His workshop. I know He is making a special gift or surprise for me. It's been a while of waiting and I have told Him all of what I want and would like. In anticipation, I hear the clinking and the tapping. I have seen Him take material in to His shop, but the time is near when something will finally be produced and presented to me. I'm excited. I have an smidge of an idea of what He has in store, but I really don't have a clue :)
It is a brighter day, and I am looking forward to the days ahead. I have a longing, groaning ache in my heart that is accompanied with a rising joy. Joy is rising from what used to be ashes in my heart, and the ache propels me into God's heart. Aching is a gift that makes it evident that my heart is alive. I pray that God will give me grace to obey that hunger and satisfy my longings in Him. Jesus come be the love of my life.

In the very near future things are going to be changing for me. Starting with Brazil in October. I know that I am going to be changed forever! I have seen women in desperate situations, and I have met some broken-hearted men as well... But I have yet to look into the eyes of a child that is selling themselves for sex just to get some money for food.
I am going to be changed. Every penny that has been sown into this trip is going to reap rewards. No doubt about it. Every person that gave for this trip is going down in the record books of history in heaven. If you are in Jesus, great is your inheritance in what you give towards.
Do you want to be blessed and do you want treasure in heaven? Treasures in heaven aren't going to be a let down, I guarantee! God loves a cheerful giver and God loves the poor. God is near the afflicted, oppressed, broken, weak and the lowly of heart.
If you want in on an eternal investment, give towards the poor, needy, orphan and widow. Most important, Give to ministries that are Jesus Justice people. Without Jesus there is NO justice. Let Him be the center, let Him be the focus and watch Him deliver the oppressed who cry out "Abba Father!"
The poor and oppressed need to be healed, saved and delivered. My prayer is this that the Father of Glory would fill them with a Spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of God that the eyes of their understanding would be enlightened that they would know the hope of their calling. And that they would be filled with all the fullness of God in Christ Jesus. ` Ephesians 1:17-19
