He gives and takes away!


Morning everyone!
He gives and takes away has become our hearts cry as we seek to serve and honour our God, let me explain.
Evening day 2.
After such fantastic programs the night and morning before, we moved towards the next program with confidence. It bombed! Big time! Very low numbers, forgetting parts the wheels felt like they were falling off. Or so we thought.
Maybe we lost some of our focus on God, or maybe the Lord was teaching us just how much we need to rely on Him. Either way, He gives and takes away.
Our worship time that night was one of the most real times in my life, as we searched for the programing reasons for our demise, Craig(team parent) pointed us towards our reliance on God, and faithfulness to Him despite the outcome.

Morning day 3
How great is our God!
Almost as a direct contrast to our evening before, we put God first, trusted His leading and ...
We filled the tarp with both parents and kids! Our stories flowed! We were funny! Jesus was declared! AWESOME!
It really has been an example to us all of just how much we need to alter our lives to make sure God is in control!
Please keep praying for the team!

  2. Wow, that some great insight! Its good to see you are letting God speak into what you are doing! And great that you realised so quickly why focus was gone, and how you got back into God's way.

    Plus, that explains the really long debrief the other night :P

    Keep up the amazing work, Im praying for y'all and look forward to seeing you all at it later this week! God bless.
