My body hasn't been dry in 3 days. It's been pretty humid so I'm constantly sweaty. And it's been rainy the past few days, so that sucks too.
Today wasn't a normal day. The reason why it was different was because he handed out a lot of fliers to promote an event that's happening tomorrow at Doshisha University. We printed out about 80 copies of the flier and handed them out to students. I got rejected about 10 times, so I was pretty discouraged. I began to pray to God that He would give me strength to simply approach people without fear and hand them the flier and invite them to the event. We did this the majority of the time, and headed home a little early. Even though it was a short day, our team as a whole did a lot, so I feel satisfied. I have to prepare my testimony for thursday, but I'm not really nervous at all. Usually I don't prepare what I'm going to say when I share about personal experiences, because I feel restrained when I try and follow a structure. I really like to let God take the reigns and talk through me.
I just realized that I didn't pack to much clothes this trip, and it's not too good because I constantly have to go to the laundry place. Our team is staying up to watch the Japan vs. Paraguay soccer match. I wore my Japanese Jersey today at campus, and I felt like a dork because people were just looking at me. I think it's because they're jealous, yeah, that must be it. Please pray for our outreach event at Doshisha tomorrow night. I really have no idea what the turnout is going to be, but I'm 100% confident that the people who are there have been hand picked by God to be there.

Hi, Shawn,
ReplyDeleteYour last sentence hit the nail on the head. Those who will be attending
the meeting will be hand picked. I'll be praying for you also as you share
your testimony as He leads you what to say. Perhaps if here are fewer people then you all will be able to to do one on one with each person who
has come. That will be neat. Praying for you. Carl
Hope you're picking up the hairs you drop on the ground. hahaha.
ReplyDeleteI think you definitely have a gift of sharing your heart. I'm confident that your testimony is going to make a huge difference for the kingdom. Praying for ya.
