New Year, Same God


Isn't it comforting to know that however much the world changes our God is never changing. His mercy is still endless, even as the evil in this world grows. He is still forgiving, even as we all still sin. And despite how we may feel the truth is He is still sovereign over everyone...every leader...every politician. No matter what happens in this world His kingdom will never cease or lesson in power. 

So much has happened in a year in John and I's lives; marriage, new families, new home, near death and all the while we were held by the hand of God. The lessons he has taught us through trial and through joy have been priceless- I would not change a thing about how this year has gone. Every suffering produced perseverance and with this came deeper faith and trust in Jesus.

As John and I walk into the next season of our lives, we know there will be many struggles and challenges but equally we know God will bestow many blessings and joy.  YWAM Boston has big plans for 2010! Scary plans that right now seem impossible but we trust and know God will use us. All he needs are willing hearts.
Right now we have the pleasure of hosting a team of 20 Korean Students from a University DTS. They are so on fire for Jesus and have been preaching and performing around the city of Boston and seeing many come to the Lord! It is both wonderful and challenging to see their passion for Jesus. I will be joining them as they perform on the streets this afternoon and John and I will also join them tomorrow.  

On another note we have another team from Tyler Texas arriving today and they are also here to share Jesus with people! Boston this week is getting hit hard by missionaries so please pray that many would come to know the Lord. It is always encouraging to me personally to have people coming along side us in our mission in Boston; they hold us up and keep us going. The challenge to meet this city is immense and we need a body of believers not only standing us in prayer but also physically standing with us :)

Coming up... we have our dress rehearsal for our production called 'Encounter" next Friday and our first show on the 23rd January 2010. If you know any church who would like to host out show we will be doing a north east tour from February :)
