Youth Meeting

This past Saturday, I was able to share a word at the youth service. The worship was incredible as the youth passsionately sought after God with all their might. We worshiped for one hour and a half. I love these guys because they are so hungry for God and seeking Him with all their hearts. I then shared about God given dreams. That everyone is given a dream from God and a mission to do in this life. Their talents are hints of what they are to do for God. I encouraged them and asked God to reawaken the dreams that have fallen asleep and been distracted by the temptations of the enemy. I am personally living His dream for my life, and there as been many tests and challenges in this past year. God is been faithful to give me the strength to overcome every obstacle of the enemy. I then prayed over the youth, and so many came to me afterwards to tell me how much that blessed them. I am so thankful to be ministering to the future leaders of Lebanon. To God be all the Glory.

First Resurrection Sunday in Lebanon

This past Sunday was my first Resurrection Sunday in Lebanon. It was a day I will never forget. It started off with the youth of our church presenting a tremendous drama. Then I went with our assistant pastor to our international church in Hamra. I was able to share a word before the offering, and he also gave me the opportunity to serve communion. It was the first chance I was given the opportunity to do this and it was incredible. It has always been a dream of mine to do this one day. Then I went to eat dinner at the house of one of the ladies at our church. I am so thankful for her because she has treated me like a son. Then i met with the young guys, and we went bike riding downtown. I have not ridden a bike in 10 years so it was an funny but enjoyable experience. One of the young guys who just gave his heart to the Lord (last month the Lord spoke to him in a dream and when he woke up he gave his heart to God) shared his testimony with two Syrians we ran into. They thanked him for taking the time to share, and they shared they received what he was saying. You could see the love of God in his face as he was sharing with these to guys. This young man is only 18 years old. He has a bright future in the Lord. I am so honored to be sharing life with these young guys. They are going to change this region for Jesus. All Glory be to our King.
