Dearest Gladys

    Gladys is a Pokot. She is 15 years old and is a mother 3 already. Her oldest is 4 years a old! Her husband is 45 olds and Gladys is not his only wife.   She would wake up at 5 in the morning or earlier to fetch water. All morning long till 10 am or so, she would continue going back and forth from the river so we would have water. She is so young yet so strong!     One day, her children found their way to where we were staying. Gladys came abruptly  and pulled her kids aside. It was weird to see a 15 year  ...

Joy to the World

After being in the Maasai tribe I got to see an overflowing joy that I have never witnessed before. The children would smile even with 15 flies on their faces. They would smile even when their feet were freezing because they don't all have shoes. They would STILL be smiling when their clothes reeked of milk and were torn. The joy that came from their faces each day would leave a grin on my face for hours. That joy could only be given from God. After seeing the work done in the Maasai tribe, He challenged me to have that kind of joy.  God answered my prayer just the other night. I...

God Speaks

The first time I heard someone tell me that God spoke to them I truly thought it was a joke. How could God speak to us? I have never witnessed God speaking through my life.UNTIL, I was reminded in a session at training camp called,“God speaking,” that he speaks to us all the time, we just need to listen!   After the session, someone came up to me to tell me “God is speaking in your life, just listen.” That was the last day of training camp. Monday night we all gathered together to worship the God we serve. As I began to cry out to the Lord, Ruthann came to me...
