Everyday We Can Make A Difference

Two months in Romania and the road does not come without challenges! After 3 rounds of Antibiotics, a trip to Bulgaria, a strong bout of culture shock and another year younger, I am feeling refreshed and renewed! It was an amazing time in Bulgaria and a blessed time with the American and Bulgarian team. The world is so small as I met 3 American Missionaries and some great folks from UK. The opportunity to work with all in the future is a blessing.

I joined the team in Bulgaria for the last four days of their trip. They had already ministered in several Turkish villages and in Istanbul Turkey. They experienced a strong presence of God in every place. Many people received Jesus in their hearts as well as the evidence of speaking in tongues. There were many physical healing as well. After my arrival the team traveled an hour out of Sofia and ministered in a Turkish Church with over 1000 members. The presence of God was there and many came with expectant hearts and left with those expectations filled.

I to came with an expectant heart as well. I wanted to see God move in peoples hearts and see miracles of healing and experienced it first hand and was used by God. As usual, I expected to give but received so much more than I could ever give. After experiencing some difficult things and not feeling well, God used the team in Bulgaria to encourage me.

Thank you so much for you prayers and encouragement! It has allowed me to come through some challenging times here! The needs outweigh the ability and time! The lives here in are so broken, yet so hungry. There are things you see out in the field, things you experience that words can't even begin to express. The day to day of just trying to process the why's, the who's, the what's is a challenge. I wonder is it enough? Am I making a difference? I want to do more but I feel so limited, due to language, time and so many other things. I ask God, "I am doing enough?" I want to do more, I want to go faster and the fact is that it takes time!

Everyday is a new opportunity! Everyday is a chance to make a difference! Everyday we can change someone's life. It don't have to be in Romania! Even if you don't feel like it, and it is hard and it won't be enough, do something nice for someone else...Small is good, don't wait for the big thing do the small first. A kind word, a good deed or just listen! You will see, it changes your life and it makes you want to do more! Everyday is important, don't miss the chance, we are not promised tomorrow. No matter how hard it is!

And not only this, but we also exult in our tribulations, knowing that tribulation brings about perseverance; and perseverance, proven character; and proven character, hope; and hope does not disappoint, because the love of God has been poured out within our hearts through the Holy Spirit who was given to us.
Romans 5: 3-5
