camp fun!
breakthrough.
breakthrough.
God is a God of breakthrough.
just when i think there is no way, He comes through.
He is faithful and He hears his people!
Every week, we get together in different groups to pray. To seek the Father's heart for the people we love so much in Masi. To contend for breakthrough in their lives and in the community. As we come before the Father with things that feel SO big, so overwhelming at times, we forget how good God really is. We forget that nothing is impossible for him and that He is the master orchestrator.
So why is it a surprise when we see the very things we pray for come to pass? When we see miraculous things happening before our eyes. Why am I floored when I see breakthrough in situations that seem so far off?!
God is so GOOD! and he really does hear his people. below is JUST ONE testimony of the Father's faithfulness that we are experiencing in these days...
One of our desires in the VC program is to reach the whole family where the children live. We have been praying a lot for the moms and care takers of our children. That they would desire to know Jesus and His love, and that they would be touched as a family. After the fire we have been supporting our families and helping them get back on their feet. So many of our families said that they were so touched that Jesus would love them through our help. One older mama, Mama Eilene, was so touched that she said she wanted to give her life fully to Jesus. In her response to Jesus, Mama Eilene began to gather some families together to begin to share life, learn about Jesus, and study His Word in a bible study gathering. We found out that two of the families that Mama Eilene was gathering were two of our VC families! She had no idea that these were some of the very families we have been praying for! She is speaking into their lives and encouraging them in ways that we (as outsiders) could never do! It really is the Father's heart for these families to find hope, healing, purpose and life! He is bringing breakthrough for them... because He is FAITHFUL.
