Hey all of you back home! I'm back from my road trip...until my next road trip for 5 weeks on monday. haha, not too long. I have a few things to say about the past month, as you can imagine!
1) Amazing things happened by the power of God, I learnt a lot about my future, the destiny God has designed me for. I now have a plan for my entire life that is subject to change at the will of God, but I am DEFINATELY called to missions.
2) Because my church family reads this I thought I would let them know that I have felt God pulling on my heart to be baptized, to symbolize a new birth, a washing and to act as a physical representation of becoming a new creation. I figured I should let you guys know, because you are still my family and some churches have issues with baptism happening outside the home church! I'm pretty sure thats not the case here, but I wanted to respect you guys and let you all know!
3) My plans for my future are meaning a change in my near future as well, that will be announced once its certain. Its exciting though! God has plans for ME!! and YOU!!!
4) On this next road trip we are heading to Stradbroke Island, Byron Bay, Brisbane for a week of lectures from Jim Stier (an annointed storyteller and evangelist), Gold Coast to help with "schoolies" (aussie spring break) Lots of drugs and alcohol, and a Christian presence is needed, then I'm back on the base to hear Loren Cunningham speak (which is rare, hes the visionary behind YWAM). Then I get a week back on the base and I'm off to India!! YYYAAAAYYYY!!
If you could pray for my trip to India with my team, Darcy, Laura, Michelle, Kevin. And pray for divine appointments and for God to go ahead of us and pave the way that would be amazing. Thanks for all your support back home!
Peace, Love and Prayers!!

Who am I?
Lectures last week and this week have been on Identity and Destiny! Probably the most powerful weeks yet, I've been hearing God speak more now than ever. So much revelation about my past and the gifts and strengths I was born with that have been attacked and surpressed by satan, and even turned into weaknesses by him in the past. I'm claiming them back though in the name of Jesus, and really scaring satan. I've finally really channelled my prophetic ability just to call on God to see situations unusually well through His eyes, and people through His eyes as well!
I've taken back, joy, passion, purity, integrity, persistence, wisdom, faith...etc... and I'm starting to see my destiny unfold, but I still need more training and building upon these. I have a strong mission calling, I'm good at discerning spirits and evangelizing. But I'm just happy to be hearing from God so fully now, I'm never in doubt and never stressed, I always seek Him first. That way I can never go astray, because He is dictating my life path!
I've got so mcuh motivation and excitement, I am WORTHY of the path that lies ahead for me!
PEace, Love and Prayers

SO FAR
WELL, yet another entry, its been so long.
First off, my travels. I've been to Roma (6 hours west of Brisbane) for a week doing religious education classes. Then from there we went to Emerald North West of Roma. We stayed on a cattle ranch with an amazing family that regularly has YWAM teams stay there, they were so accomodating. Then we travelled 9 hours from there back to the coast, to Airlie Beach, where I am now at a backpackers hostel for a night, then 12 hours up North to Cape Trib tomorrow.
ROMA! We were doing religious education classes. The kids have half an hour a week for religious education till grade 6, then its an hour a term, then an hour a year. We went into this small town simply to spread the word. Australia is far more spiritually dry than back home, especially in the rural areas where it is hard to reach and many pastors get discouraged and move out to the coast. We simply boasted about our God and showed our joy. This turned into about 10 kids, maybe more giving there life to the lord and one guy doing a YWAM DTS course that starts tomorrow. He made that choice VERY quickly! The kids simply said (and I quote) "I come from a wealthy family, but wealth and popularity cant compare with what you guys have I want that" or "You guys are so happy and fulfilled, how do I get that?!" etc...etc...
SO what I learned was basically how effective knowing God is as a testimony...because just living out the joy you have from being "tight" with God turns lives around. People have a desire in their heart to know God we were created in his image and after His heart, so we ARE connected. BUT people need to see God in us to realize that they really want the joy of the Lord to be THEIR strength. A challenge to live daily in the joy of the Lord, don't make it an emotion, or even a daily choice, but connect yourself to the Father and make it a natural WAY of life to boast about the awesomeness and love of your Father! Abba = Daddy, not Father.
In emerald we saw lots of cows, roos, horses, and got to hang out down by a billabong, a good restful day!! good time.
NEXT we are off to Cape Trib, Hervey Bay, Airlie Beach (again, for a week though) and Fraser Island!
Peace, Love and Prayers!!
P.S. If joy could convert 10 kids in a week imagine what focusing on God and just loving Him openly and honestly, just being real could do around you!! May Gods Kingdom Come on earth!! Bring the Kingdom guys!!! This is a spiritual war and we've already won, be aggressive and happy! JOYFUL!
