My comfort

The longer I am in Uganda the deeper the love of the Father has become. I feel as if this trip of coming to evangelize the Lugbara people is turning into something different. I came to share the love of Jesus and to share the hope we have in Him. I am teaching and leading and evangelizing to the people of this area. So why do I have an overwhelming feeling that God is growing my faith and renewing the passion inside me. It is as if we have our idea of what we are going to do. “I am going to save the world and tell everyone of Jesus.” We then arrive settle in and begin to see that God is doing a work in you that is great than the work you are doing. I praise the Father for teaching me the value of His word. I miss the comforts of America, but I see the overwhelming worth of sacrificing my comforts to share the love and Hope we have in Christ. May we never forget to Go make disciples of all nations. This includes America. Go share the Hope and Love of Christ today with someone.

    So I just wrote an amazing comment and it got deleted before it posted :)

    I know that your time in Uganda has not always been simple and easy, but I know that it has been fruitful and beneficial. May you continue to grow in faith and recognize God's great love for you! Know that you are being prayed for...

    Can't wait to hear more stories!

    You said, "I am teaching and leading and evangelizing to the people of this area. So why do I have an overwhelming feeling that God is growing my faith and renewing the passion inside me." People say that shared sorrow is half sorrow and shared joy is doubled joy. If evangelizing and sharing your faith makes you joyful, then in turn it will make your faith grow as well. At least that's the way I see it :-)
