I see a generation
Rising up to take the place
With selfless faith, with selfless faith
I see a near revival
Stirring as we pr*y and seek
We're on our knees, we're on our knees
And as I sang these lyrics, I remember feeling so strongly that this was a generation that was going to shake things up. Nowhere in my mind was the thought of coming to Vietnam nor did I know the plans of my fellow classmates. However, as I look at my inbox today, I feel like I am constantly receiving updates from my friends who are all over the world, doing amazing works for the L0rd.Rising up to take the place
With selfless faith, with selfless faith
I see a near revival
Stirring as we pr*y and seek
We're on our knees, we're on our knees
I am not the best at following blogs but today something told me to check them and I saw that my friend Kristi is in Africa teaching and showing her love to her students and to children in an orphanage. From what I read, she is lavishing them with love and through her, the people of Africa are seeing the L0rd.
I also have two friends in Mexico, brothers, Justin and Darren, who are sharing the Truth in juvenile hall. Today I read that a kid that they have been sharing with got out and went to church with them and was encouraged by what he saw there!
AND!!!! My friend Kelsey has been over in France for the past year and has decided to return for another year. She has been blessed to see someone baptized in His name!
If these stories do not show how He is rocking this world through this generation, I don't know what will. I hope you are as encouraged today as I am about what is going on in all corners of the world. The Light is being spread and slowly but surely, the Enemy is being defeated!
18Then The Son came to them and said, "All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. 19Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the H0ly Spirit, 20and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age." ~Matthew 28:18-20
