take these before the Throne!

As promised, here is a list of specific things to praying for. If you receive my email updates, most of these will look familiar with a couple new ones thrown in there. Help me to lift these up to God and to take them before His throne:

That I would be an ambassador of Christ- even though I'm not going on a "mission trip," I am still an ambassador of Christ everywhere I go. I am still the light of Christ and there are still people who need to hear the Gospel.

That I would have open ears, eyes, heart, and mind (and a shut mouth) to see, hear, and understand God's leading- praying for clarity along with this would be great too.

That the emotions of being in Africa (which tend to run high being in such a place) would not blind me nor distract me from how God is leading and that decisions wouldn't be made based on those emotions.


That I would be able to talk to who I need to talk to and spend time with who I need to spend time with.


For protection from the fear of man that would hinder me from following God's will- aka the little lies that the devil tries to implant.

For the farming team I am traveling with and their ministry these next two weeks.


For the people of Rwanda, Africa New Life Ministries' staff, and their ministry.


Smooth transitions back to the US for myself and for all members of the team.


This should keep you prayer warriors busy :) I also have one more prayer request to keep in the back of your mind that has nothing to do with Rwanda. I will be taking Bible proficiency exams for Gordon-Conwell two days after coming back from Rwanda. I will be taking the exams late in the afternoon on the 17th. Jet lag will be an issue; the time I will be taking the exams is right around the time where an absolute wall of tiredness hits. Please pray for supernatural energy, recall, and focus.

I'm so excited for what God is going to do with these next two weeks. I have an anticipation and expectation that He is going to show up BIG TIME.

See ya'll on the other side!
