Coming back to the Heart of Worship




Its just so GRREEAATT to see charis coming up here what more is from XS...
though i am out of XS but still has been on my heart to see Youths coming out into mission and be expose to the different areas of what the Lord is doing in this world.

Has been a great encouragement to me when Pathmakers first formed and after 2 years it is continueing it's vision and purpose. I am glad i can be part of this team and seeing this team coming to the field where i am serving in.

My view from the field side is....
It is a breakthrough to the villagers and has proven to the people that Sporeans are dilligent and especially Xtians who want to serve the Father is willing to surrender and serve His people out of their comfort zone.
- toilet? OUt in the forest with perfect view of the natural and being "intouch" with nature
- Water? No constant flow of water and what more hot water.... nothing! Unable to bath daily under hot water... buying drinking water (not from the tap)
- Bed? Hardly... sleeping bags, squeezed together...
- Food? "Abundent" "Overflowing" "Mount everest" providence and not abling to finish but do not want to offend the culture/people
- Transport? No system in the traffic/traffic jam and squeezed in tiny taxis

Ppl reading my blog, these are the basic in Spore but the trippers has overcomed all these during their stay here... 2 thumbs up PATHMAKERS!

During the stay of Pathmakers, i am very encouraged to once again to come back to the Heart of Worship & i know is the strength of XS/charis. Having the team to come down to sophia hm to worship and pray for them, really have shown a great aspect of worship to the girls.

Having being busy with my language exam and the water project is really tough and becoming a little stress... i also hardly visit my girls and when the team arrives i was in the village together with them and after that we left for Pokhara for rest and the day we arrive back in the capital, the time where we held a worship session with the girls, i realized that i am so so deeply missing them...

Then the next day, we had a xmas party with them... so nice to see them dancing and singing and also abling to watch their performances in LSA. I can to kind of spend a little more time with them.. and the next day after the team leaves, had a prayer session for them before they leave for their homes. I am glad i am able to give them hugs and kisses before they leave...

Now there's like only 6 of them left... is a great opportunity for me to spend time with these 6girls. Now we are going caroling... the weather here is like freezing now!!!

There's this part of me that the Lord is moving... i do not know how to explain but all i know is whenever i see someone who is hurting or spiritually attacked, my heart goes out to them so much and i just wanna go and hugged them and i will just weep together with them... i never had this side of me before.... I recalled 2incidents.

- When 1 gal came to me and cried, i just hugged her and ask her whatz wrong? Then as she shares, i just kept weeping and prying for her and listen her out...

- In Phulbari, this boy who has some fears in him, i jus hugges him with no thoughts of how many days this boy didnt bathe or bugs in his hair... i just hugged him and weeped...

In this two incidents, i felt the Lord's love and presence just fell on them... I felt that as i hugged them, is an assurance to them that the Lord is hugging them.

I am still discovering what the Lord is moving in my life in this area for this season...
