Praise God for His sovereign orchestration to bring Passion to Vancouver. I was blessed to worship our Great God with fellow believers on this scale in a city that is so full of beauty but most people don’t connect it to its maker. It feels so secular that sometimes you feel worship sucked out of your heart and lungs even though your natural response to seeing his creation all around you is to worship. How much I love the beauty of creation here, but how much more I need and want to see the beauty of Jesus, my creator and redeemer in his fullness fill and make this city truly beautiful. I need strength to worship. What an artist. This evening was evidently put together by His design.

I found myself heading to the evening with hope and optimism that God can penetrate the darkness and grayness of this city. That he could light a fire in our hearts that wouldn’t be drowned by the rain of unbelief around us. How great it was to have these gifted musicians lead us in worship and Louie to stir our hearts to see God more acurately.

I realized at one point, wow, here we are in a unique gathering in this place, no where else in the whole globe, this night. In this moment, to testify that God is Mighty to Save in this city. Humbling. I was refreshed in my hope in God’s ability to work in my life and save me. I took opportunity throughout the evening to look at all these young men and women for whom I give my life energy and time influencing on campus at UBC and was calling out to God that they would know that God is mighty to save them and the city in which they live, to take steps of faith together that they would be stirred to see the renown of Jesus.

My thoughts prayerfully moved forward for an outreach we are doing in January where we will have Porn Star Ron Jeremy debate Micheal Lehee, a Christian who was a former porn addict. We are trusting that God will expose the darkness and bring healing to many souls. As a person who has fought many battles and won some and lost some in this area, I trust God that he can use this event to reach thousands of others. Please join us in prayer for this event. Please pray and join us in trusting that God will use this event to bring broken people into his kingdom, just like Ashley, just like me, just like you. I encourage you to live out the essence of what we focussed on tonight moment by moment by the Holy Spirit and getting involved for his kingdom where you are at. If not involved, join a movement of God’s people who are passionate about Jesus and taking his message to the world.

It’s cold and wet in Cape Town. The air is filled with dark clouds and although I should be getting on with my assignments, I decided to check out what’s happening on 268 blog.

I read a few entries and suddenly I was overwhelmed with this warm feeling in the centre of my heart, breaking through the cold and wet circumstances here in Cape Town. suddenly I realised that that is just exactly what passions does – they break through the cold and give love and warmth to people through God’s amazing love.

Passions team and Mexico city, you are all in my heart and prayers!

I just watched a video that you all did in 2000, you called Botswana and talked to the missionary there in Gaborone, his last name was Mathis we have been there now for seven years, five hours north in a town called Francistown. The prayer request was for God to break down the walls in Botswana so people could truly recieve Jesus as thier Savior and hear the word. I just wanted to write and say, I think God is answering that prayer. We are starting to see people truly see where they are and to know truths about Jesus for the first time. All praise to God for what he is doing. God never forgets the prayers given to him on behalf of others. The song that was sung by Chris Tomlin in Setswana, when we were appointed in 2001, that was the first song we heard in our language before we arrived on the field. May God Bless

I don’t know how stupid I sound when I keep saying the same thing over and over because every time I try to express how freaking awesome God is I don’t find the words to express it. I’m still changed, but still the same and it feels amazing. We are all unbelievably blessed.

Praying for Mexico City and the rest.
