Ok maybe the words to this song were a little too literal this morning as my hair dryer caught fire and basically exploded internally. Poor little hair dryer. I did ask God to stretch me this trip, and He seems to be wasting no time (you all know me and know how much a value a fun hairdo..,haha). He seems to be chipping away at my vanity and rightly so. :)
We are heading off to church soon, and I cannot wait! Last night's debrief was just what we all needed...a time to get refocused on why we are here and prepare our hearts for God's calling and teaching. Allie and I started the morning off with a beautiful walk around campus as the sun rose against the African sky. So peaceful and just the kind of warmth needed to start the day.
We will be spending the afternoon with Pastor Trevor and his wife, and then we will head over to the orphanage. I'm looking forward to this and dreading it all at the same time. I can't wait to hold the babies and shower them with all the love they can take. Praying that my heart can hold up as well.
I'm going to try to end each post with prayer points for all of you back home. I would also ask that you PLEASE leave me some things to pray for you. You can comment here or on my Facebook page or send me an email. But please share with me the things you need prayer for.
Prayer points:
Continued safety and good health
A focused and quiet heart
Love for the babies and staff this afternoon
Thank you!! Have a blessed Sunday!!
Much love,
Brandi
