YWAM

Yesterday I went with Sean to visit a Youth With A Mission (YWAM) base just outside of Nashville.

and it was so good...

after telling them my heart for YWAM and germany, they invited me to join some others to venture out and help pioneer a new Discipleship Training School (DTS) in Berlin Germany.
please check out the base profile. www.ywamberlin.org

i need your help.

the DTS starts April 5th, and will cost about $3,000 USD including the plane ticket.

that leaves just under two months to raise the tuition.

God is more than capable. i am trusting that He has already started laying it on the hearts of His people.

for any of you who don't know my heart...
we are called to love in real ways. to bring heaven to earth.
this world is filled with hurting people, with real pain.
parents who don't know how their children will eat today...
women and children who don't have a choice but to turn off their emotions as they are used again for sex...
people who have to ask passerbys for money so they can have a drink that night and forget about how cold it is and how hungry they are.
men and women who have to live with their choice to end a human life, their baby's life, because they didn't feel they had what it took to be parents.

and these people are our brothers.
our sisters.
our parents.
our children.
our friends.
we graduated with them.
passed them by.
we have chosen to look past them.

if i recall, following Christ means to act and love as He did.
to care for those in need.
to love those who have been beaten by the world and considered mere garbage.
to choose to reach out and share in their afflictions...

i can't sit back and do nothing anymore.. lets stand for what we believe in.

i invite all of you to venture out to the unknown with me and trust God.

these are real people, with real needs.

i'm not going to stop praying for them whether i am able to go or not...

you shouldn't stop praying for them whether you give or not.

please do more than consider this...

act.

pray.
and please send support.

Father, thank You for all opportunities to reach people, and bless others. may we realize our blessings, and reach out to touch others lives with them. it's not about us. it's not about what makes us secure or comfortable. it's about something so much bigger. about saving mankind. about reaching the ends of the earth, even our own backyards. may Your will be done with this.
i love You, and choose to trust You! most of all, Thank You For Your Love and Filling Us With It.
amen

i challenge you to stand for what you believe in.
