Changing Heart

It is absolutely amazing how God can change your heart. I got an e-mail about Muslims (basically against a certain Presidential Candidate) and I got mad. I wanted to rant and rave about how Muslims aren’t bad people; they need Christ! Before I committed to this trip I knew we needed to reach them with the Gospel, but now it has really hit home. Don’t get me wrong, I do not want a Muslim president for my country - a great country with a Christian heritage. I want people to stop talking about how awful they are and see them as Christ sees them; sheep without a shepherd, lost people who are dying and on their way to an eternity in Hell. They have such strong faith, but their faith is misplaced. Christ is what they need!

First Post

God is good! I am amazed at our technology that will allow me to write on a blog that people anywhere in the world can read. I plan on giving updates about the trip, what God is doing in North Africa and in my heart. I have just send out my letters, and support is already being given. PRAISE THE LORD!! Sometimes I really just cannot fathom the fact that I’m going to North Africa this summer – it is amazing! I just want to make sure that this is not about me, it is all about Him and giving Him unusual glory.
