What I do!
Nissis Notes
A lot is happening at the missions base. There are many people getting saved, delivered, and who are going deeper in the Lord then ever before. The children are beginning to have real relationships with God, not just Sunday school bible story kind of stuff. L eading worship has become such a joy that I can not imagine doing anything else. I do what I do simply because He is worthy. My heart is stirred by what He is doing, and bless His name for who He is. Though this is a reality, I have been asking the Lord how I sustain myself long term in my calling. I have a friend who is also a missionary, who works for another well-known organization; before they can come on staff, they have to be fully funded in order to do the work the Lord has called them to do. This has convicted my heart because I am not fully funded, and I am doing the work. I have been pondering this idea, as well as the idea of stewarding my time and energy. I asked myself, am I being a good steward with my time, energy, as well as my calling? If I can not take care of myself in practical ways, then how am I going to sustain myself long term in this calling. Yes, my main occupation is an intercessory missionary, and I know that this is what I am going to do with the rest of my life. However, I feel that for a season I need to give most of my time and energy to partner raising. This does not make me less called. I will still be around the base, but will not be putting all my time into the prayer room until I am fully funded. I felt it important for you, my partners (prayer or support), to know. I am currently tutoring one student, and I am waiting to hear back about a substitute-teaching job. Please keep me in prayer about this season of my life. Also, if you know someone who you think would be interested in what I do, I would love to talk with them. Thank you so much for your support- I could not do what I do without you! Remember, we are PARTNERS- I am here, but you are sending me!! THANK YOU!!! J

What I am doing at IHOPEG!

Serving the Children
I was recently in a CEC meeting where we started off with prayer. As we prayed for each other, and asked the Lord for more wisdom on how to teach the children, the Spirit of the Lord spoke to me in a great way. He told me that we were actually servants to these children. He began to speak to me about how Jesus is the servant to all. Jesus humbled Himself by coming down off of His throne, and gave His very life so that we could have just that, LIFE. I have always thought that I was just teaching these children, and that I had to make sure that I was teaching them well. The Lord has shifted my paradigm. The best teachings I can ever give these children is to humble myself, come down off my throne, and give my life for them, so that they will have LIFE. As I serve, I am teaching them, loving them, and truly give them what their little hearts need! Praise Jesus!
