First things first, I was vague in some of my blogs about places and names of people. This is because India's government is one that offers "freedom of religion" but not freedom of conversion. Names and places were withheld to keep people safe.
1. Prayer is powerful. So often I forget that.
2. God is mighty. I have seen him heal his people.
3. There is a difference in being a nice person and being a Christian. A friend once said "if we aren't bringing people life, we may as well be bringing them death." Think about that. Let it marinade a little.
4. Don't put yourself in a box because you are indirectly putting God in a box. He wants to use you, so you must believe and not question that.
5. God's plans might be different than my plans. I went over to India to work with former prostitutes but ended up working with preschoolers and young women . It's not what I expected, but I loved every minute of it.
6. Leave nothing behind. I learned more about urgency and how important it is to "give it all you got."
7. I am not bound by my insecurities. This summer I realized how much my insecurities affect me and how often I buy into different lies I have believed before. God loves me and created me in His image. I am defined by that and not by how I have been hurt in the past or anything else.
8. I have known true love
9. Don't prostitute your heart out to other people or things. God wants all of your heart, and He wants you to turn to him for love.
10. If you want to love God more, you must seek to know Him more.
