Oh sickness =P

Has happened within our team. Although a few are suffering from throwing up, fever, back pain, and diarreah, We are NOT giving it authority over our lives. Neither are we going to praise it in our bodies. We belong to the Lord, and the Holy Spirit dwells within us. I'm so thankful the Lord has promised to never leave or forsake us. I'm so thankful for the comfort of the Holy Spirit and for the peace that surpasses all understanding/knowledge. God I praise you for never changing, for forever being the same. You are Lord in the good and bad times. You are on your throne, and you reign. We are your children and have the authority of Christ, given to us in salvation. Jesus, we declare in YOU we have health and that sickness has no hold on us. The Joy of the Lord is our strength. I will repeat again, the joy of the Lord is our strength! We pray against any more sickness in our team. You would keep those who are healthy, healthy and those who are sick to heal. Holy Spirit come stronger and bigger here on this base and here in our life's. God we love you and declare that you still have the glory! Be glorified in our sickness and health.

Hannah, Emily and I went to the brothel on Monday. What an awesome day we had! Emily shared her testimony that really got the women connected. We hung out with them for a while and gave them back massages, and they loved it! I think they felt treasured. We than prayed with them before we left. Tuesday we went to Perrise, a tent city here in St. Marc. It was so wonderful! As we hopped in the back of the truck I looked up at the sky and said "it looks like it's gonna rain" and a few mintues later it started to rain and the rain turned into almost 2 whole hours of POURING rain. It was like a dream arriving to Perrise with the mud streets all turning into rivers. We got invited into a house and got to hang out with them for a little bit. It was so fun playing in the rain with the kids, holding one under shelter and praying for her mother, helping one mother that was running past with 2 children in her hands. One a baby, the other a toddler hanging from her mothers hand. I helped her and grabbed the toddler in my arms and ran after the mother until we got to their tent. =] I love those little blessings! We were actaully planning on doing a DTS and making a craft with them, but the Lord changed our plans, and turned them into even better than we had planned! Tuesday afternoon the women from both brothels came to watch a movie, hang out, and have a snack. We watched Spiderman 2 and related it with Spirtual Warefare, how there is good and evil, and talked about that for a bit. It was nice to go to a house here on base and we were able to make rice crispy's for the women and cook for a couple hours. It felt like we got away somewhere and weren't in Haiti for a bit, it was nice to relax together.

Wednesday is today, well today my team is sick. Hannah, Emily and I would have gone to Perrise again and do a VBS teaching, and than head to the brothel at 2pm, but our plans once again were changed. The Lord makes everything work together for the good of those that love Him. I believe it!
We will see what the Lord has planned for the rest of this week!
