Let It Rain

While we were in the bush with the Maasai, we spent the past 3 days going around to all the surrounding huts to encourage new believers and the share the gospel with the unbelievers. God has really been at work in our group. The Holy Spirit leads us to what we should say to each of these people. Most of the people ask that we would pray for rain. They have had a drought for 2 months. We would pray that God would send the rain and that his power would be shown through it. Later that night the clouds started to move in and sure enough the rain poured down. Unfortunately our tent didnt have a rain cover so we slept in a pool of water- but you know what, while that was probably one of the worst nights of my life, i wouldn’t trade it for the world- because God moved and answered a prayer. For 3 straight nights it rained. One night it rained so hard that all of our tents flooded and our whole group had to fit in to one hut. It was so awesome. We asked a man if he had noticed that it rained after we prayed for it and he said that he has searched up and down this valley and not one person who prayed for rain had been answered. We were the first one. Now that is the power of God. If it means having our tents float away  to show that man that God is God, then let our tents float away! God is so good. They Holy Spirit is so alive at this place and we get to be a part of this, we get to be a part of His work, His wonders, and His power.
 
 
Please continue to pray that the Holy Spirit would be alive in our group and that we would carry out his will and not our own. Also, 3 members of our team are really sick so please pray for healing.
