January 9th was opening night for the Winter DTS '10. We started out the week going on Exodus. Exodus is a time where we take students camping for 2 nights and they are only allowed to bring the bare min. During this time the students are really thrown out of their comfort zone. We use this time to share testimonies and develop close friendships. Exodus was wonderful for DTS students. All of the students really started opening up and I know that every single student that is here has been hand-picked by God for this time. I have felt so honored to be a part of this ministry and watching the students lives transform before my eyes. Already in less than 3 weeks we are seeing transformation. I can't wait to see what God has in store.
A little of what's been going on with me:
God has been teaching me a lot about trusting Him. He has me at the place where I am daily surrendering all of me, my life, my desires, my everything to Him. It's been a constant battle between my flesh and my spiritual being. I am finally beginning to realize what it means to surrender everything and how we're constantly fighting against the flesh for the things of God. I am learning to believe that God is truly enough for me and that without me I am NOTHING!! God has been so good and faithful and I'm really thankful for this time He has me here in Maui.
I would love to keep in touch with all of you (family and friends at home.) I am going to try and update my blog weekly.
Thank you ALL for your prayers and support!! I appreciate it all soo much.
Much Love!!!
ps. Pictures soon to come.
