i write to you, so i can give you all an update of what is going on with me personally. The Lord has been gracious in His dealing with me, i dont have a lot of experience in the field, but i dont think is about experience but abut loving God in such way that is evident by a love for people.
The field is teaching me a lot of how to be humble, loving and patience, God is working i my character as He is using me to work in some of other people. He also is working in the life of my family. my mom, my sister and i went to church yesterday and that was really encouraging. i really loved. im on a break right now until tonight because of my sister's birthday, it was the first time that i was able to send a birthday with her.
spiritual warfare is more real being in the field, but i think it is a great reminder that we dont fight in our strength but in Gods. The people i interact with, doesnt need my eloquence or my skill to share the Gospel, they need the Gospel, i must be clear, concise and biblical. the enemy can deviate us to look at us too much and compliment ourselves too much, but what the worth of your own compliment if you may fail yourself tomorrow. we must trust that God will not ourselves. Love for people will lead to wait for the fruit of the Spirit manifest itself instead of rushing for results.
pray requests:
Character: Pray that the Lord keeps molding me into a man who clearly loves him, and be encourage by His sufficiency. Pray that i can keep myself faithful to God in character and preaching. and that i can be bold and loving in my speech always.
Family: pray for my aunt myrian who is dying of cancer and this situation has move my mother to pray with me once in a while, pray that this situation leads the members of my family closer to Christ. My brother is moving more towards biblical matters in our conversations so pray that this be true in his life. pray for the salvation of all of them.
Wisdom: i need to make some decisions which will determine my future in some sense, and i need wisdom to do what the Lord pleases to be good in his sight
books: okay i have physical books and i need them but i cant carry them everywhere i go because of the weight and as well the extra weight cost on the trips. so i need to find them, on kindle or Ibooks in my ipad so i can take them everywhere. so if you interested you can donate so i can purshase them on itunes or kindle
