I've had an ongoing migraine since Saturday night--5 days now. I had to cancel kickboxing yesterday and not work in the cafe today. Please pray that it will GO AWAY!
Decisions can be one of the most daunting things! Right now, most of my friends here (and myself) are at places where in these next weeks we need to be making big decisions. Please pray for God's wisdom, grace to be patient in the waiting period, and nothing to stand in the way of His plans being clear to us!
A quick excerpt from Josh's latest update from Haiti:
On a daily basis people would come in with all kinds of crazy wounds. Some with amputated arms, legs, feet, etc. in order to get checkups...a lady came in who was deaf and partially mute. The doctors and nurses gathered around here and started praying. And almost immediately she began to be able to hear. And then the translator became ecstatic because he said that she was then able to even speak properly. She was so overcome with the joy and love of God that she tore off her voodoo necklace and wanted to burn it immediately. So right there in the clinic they started a mini fire to burn the necklace, and began praising God for His overwhelming love. Our cafe is up and running. This IS an answer to prayer! My excitement, however, is stifled, because I don't WANT it to just be a cafe. I want it to be a MINISTRY to travellers! I want to meet, share with, and influence the lives of foreigners passing through! Please pray that our team will come together with a vision that we are committed to ~ presenting travellers with the opportunity to know Christ!
