Praise God for answered prayer!

Last time I blogged I shared an urgent prayer request that really did need a quick response… thank God He said ‘yes’! Yesterday my long-awaited passport came in the post (if I hadn’t received it by tomorrow it would have been too late)! Saying that I’m relieved is an understatement, for a while I thought I wouldn’t be able to go to Spain on missions, but I should have been more trusting. In a way I count it as confirmation that God has a mission for me in Spain. God affirms you in the strangest ways at times, all that stress and panic actually had a purpose behind it now that I have my passport in hand.

I’m so looking forward to what God’s got in store for our team in Spain, good things are ahead. Please pray for the team as we organise a kids’ club, lead English language workshops, take part in Church services, are interviewed on radio, lead worship, and organise a cultural night amongst other things. Pray for energy and enthusiasm as there’s a full programme lined-up for us. I’d encourage you to partner with us in prayer, we may be the hands and the feet on this mission but you can be just as much a part of this by being a praying heart.

Also, can I just say how awesome our God is and thank Him for an opportunity that only He could have orchestrated. Last Saturday night I had the chance to share at Summer Madness a bit about the story behind ‘faith undiluted’ and ‘frank’. I hope and pray that it spoke to the young people about how God’s Word has a place in their everyday lives and should have the last word on decisions that they make and steps that they take. I’m so thankful that He never fails in being faithful. Before I shared the last thing I wanted to do was stand up infront of everyone, nerves took over behind stage, but as it always happens as soon as I open my mouth God takes over and I have nothing to worry about.

When I return I’ll share about what God got up to in Spain on our mission… until then please hold us in your prayers. Yours in Christ, connie x
