Exploration

After settling in to my new home I have explored the city of Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. As a part of training the students were divided into groups and challenged to explore new areas of the city. I visited Hindu temples, mosques, city malls, plazas and ate every type of Malaysian food you could think of. It was a full day of exploration, buses, trains and walking.

I am throughly enjoying getting to know everyone in my program, God has bought us all together for this season in our lives and after only a week it seems like one big family.

We just arrived back home in KL from a retreat. We went in the middle of no where for 4 days and had a time of prayer, fellowship and fun. We explored a waterfall and went swimming in the rain forest for an afternoon and swung from ropes into the refreshing cold river water.

The Lord has already revealed so much to me during this time at the retreat. Everything we do should be for His name's sake. That means, my life is not my own, my dreams, my desires, my will...everything should lay down at the feet of my creator. In this, I am going through a process of becoming the woman of God He wants me to be. Making a conscious effort everyday to live out a life walking with Jesus and allowing Him to teach me, mold me, test me.

I'm not saying the journey is easy my friends, because where there is a call, there is a cost. The theme of G.E.T. this year is "Finding your destiny" and that's exactly what I intend to do. One step at a time I am allowing God to show me his faithfulness and show me the path that I may walk on it and honor His name. That's what life is about, ey. Living life to the fullest, enjoying everyday, not worrying about the future but being content in the present. In the movie, Kung Fu Panda the wise turtle says "Yesterday is history, tomorrow's a mystery and today's a gift, that's why its called the present." May we each live our lives with this mentality.
