A little trip

Last week I went to Taiwan for some meetings and a few days of vacation. I was deeply encouraged in so many ways which challenged me to push harder in language learning and in my walk with Father. While there I got to experience a lot of things that I miss a lot. One of these being eating American food!!! After our first day we went to the second tallest building in the world, the Taipei 101 and then headed to Chilli's!!! I was so excited to have the taste of those dang good southwestern egg rolls,my stomach was satisfied after leaving. I spent each day from 8-5 in meetings and then went out after with everyone. We did everything from movies to food to night markets to food and food, food, food. Did I mention Mexican food, because ya that happened! My most favorite part was spending time with friends who I hadn't seen since last summer. We shared so many stories and had a lot of good laughs which did a lot for my soul. After the week ended I stayed with a few friends for some action days where we relaxed at the beach and did some shopping and just hung out watching movies. I was so thankful for the time I got to spend with my friends. On Sunday we went to a gathering and I was hit with so many emotions. My heart was so overwhelmed to be a part of service with the locals worshipping in their native tongue. I couldn't stop crying thinking how I wished it could be like this where I am. I hadn't been to a service like this in a year and to see and here how the Sp-rit was moving was a beautiful thing. My hearts cry is to see the people of my area be moved by Father and to fall on their knees before the one who is greater. All I could think of was "my heart is overwhelmed" by Hillsong "Your love has set The broken captives free Your love released The chains once binding me I'm found in grace In love's embrace My heart is overwhelmed I stand redeemed Your spirit now alive withing my heart I walk with you all of my days I shall live to glorify you G-d Hear my soul rejoice." I cry out that the people know of His love that will set them free.
