"There is no one else like my Jesus, there is no one else like my God, there is no one else like my Jesus, there is no one else like my God!
Greetings! We wanted to start our blog off today with the English words of a song that we have sung many many times here in South Africa because it is the truth! We have seen God working in so many ways through so many people, it is incredible!
On Sunday, we had the opportunity to participate in four different worship services. They were all different in style, language, venue, but all weaved together the message of the kindness of God shown to us by the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus...We shared at Arena Park, an Indian church (where our friend Shaun use to be the youth pastor), at Kwa Debeka, a Zulu church we had been to earlier in the week, and had a surprise, God ordained visit to an outside outreach in the middle of Durban where two of us shared a bit of how Jesus has changed our lives! We saw many people coming to give their lives to Jesus there which was awesome! We also saw some good dancing and singing :o) and a few of us joined along. Many of us learned have learned that when God speaks to us, we need to not hesitate, but to listen and follow as He leads.
That night, we worshipped at Deb and Barry's church and got to hear Deb preach, reminding us that we can't expect God to bless us or things to change in our lives when we hold on to the sin that trips us up and destroyes us. It was a great great day.
Yesterday we ate some fun things like Bunny Chow, zebra and wilderbeest, and had the most incredible feast at Deshni's parents home!! Shaun and Deshni, your family is doing well, but your dog and nephew miss you very much :o) and we have some fun stories that we now know about you!!!
Yesterday was our day off and we got the amazing opportunity to go to a Game Park and see some wild animals! Let me just say that you all need to ask us about the white rhino's...we got to know then up close and personally! As they say here in South Africa, it was hectic!!! (meaning crazy, awesome).
We also got to go to the beach and dive into some big waves.
Today we are sharing our testimonies and drama at three different schools and going to Deb and Barry's small groups tonight so busy day! The students say HI and that they love you all!!! Although most of them are pretty set about staying in South Africa :o) Thank you for your prayers and we will see you soon!
