China is getting closer every day!
Our team leaves in just two weeks!
Each week our team "meets" together on Wednesday nights for a video conference call. (Technology is so amazing!) Time to share together, chat, plan, and prepare for this great adventure.
After wrapping up, Miranda and I finished assembling some gifts we are taking with us for staff at the orphanage and our guide. We were debriefing about the day and her evening with her Wednesday night youth group. She shared about the young college student intern's message and how much it and the worship time had touched her heart.
"Mom, we sang this song. Don't know if you've ever heard it before? It's called, 'Never Once,' and I just thought of China and cried."
Somewhere in that I jumped up to find my CD…Matt Redman's "10,000 Reasons"!
Oh yeah! I know that song!
Sang it in February at the Created for Care Retreat with 450 adoptive and foster mamas with tears streaming down my face! HAD TO HAVE the CD because every time I've heard it on the radio now I'm thinking about China! I sing it LOUD in the car…over and over again! It's become one of many theme songs I have for this mission trip to China…
Had to share it with y'all tonight.
Our FAITHFUL GOD is going with us all the way! We will not be alone! As we stand on the mountaintops of the Great Wall of China…as we kneel on the battlefields in an orphanage to whisper His love into the precious little hearts of all the children…we do not walk this journey alone! JOY filling our hearts!!!
Getting so excited!!!
And here is another clip of Matt Redman sharing about the song…
