My First Impression

"So I say to you: Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives; he who seeks finds; and to him who knocks, the door will be opened." Luke 11:9-10
Dear Heavenly Father,
I ask for guidance! I know You have led me on this journey for a reason, and that reason is what I seek. Please don't let my worldly views stand in the way of what this journey is about, don't let my close-minded ways blind me from seeing Your purpose. Open my eyes Lord! Be my hands and feet! Let me "be clear minded and self-controlled so that I can pray." 1Peter 4:10-11 says, "Each one should use whatever gift he has received to serve others, faithfully administering God's grace in its various forms. If anyone speaks, he should do it as one speaking the very words of God. If anyone serves, he should do it with the strength God provides, so that in all things God may be praised through Jesus Christ." Help me to speak Your Word and to serve with Your strength! Lead me! Use me Lord in which ever way best serves You and brings You glory! I pray for the people at Tenwek! I pray for their healing physically and more importantly spiritually. I pray that You not only use me to radically change the lives of these people forever, but You also use them to help change me forever! Help me to live in a way that is radical, always showing my love and devotion to Jesus Christ!
In Jesus name I pray...Amen!
A new world was shown to me today. One that I have never fully comprehended its existence, but it is hard to deny something that you see with your own eyes. The following pictures display the "normal" lives of the people of Kenya.
