I leave to the city in five days and I think I will be completely honest right now with whoever wants to read this. I feel like I should not be going. That I will be in the way, that my work in there comes later in life after I meet others who want to do the same thing there. For the past four months I have lost so much of my passion for this people group. I have done a good job masking this lost of passion and I wish I could say it was because I feel like He is calling me to another country, but thats not it at all. I have lost my passion and motivation to run after Him, worship Him, and love Him with my whole heart. I have slipped away from that daily relationship since I quit the pharmacy and stopped going to the Monday prayer meetings. During those days I was closer to Him than ever before, and lately its the furthest. I have stopped praying and reading the Word as much. Today I began listening to a worship CD while with Katy and her mom and began worshiping again for the first time in a long time. Praying, deeply praying. So good! Well anyways please be lifting that up.
Completely off subject here is this years theme song Its God of this City by Chris TomliYou're the God of this city
You're the King of these people
You're the Lord of this nation
You Are
Bridge:
For there is no one like our God
There is no one like our God
Chorus 1:
Greater things have yet to come
Great things are still to be done
In this city
Greater things are still to come
And greater things are still to be done here
Verse 2:
You're the Lord of Creation
The Creator of all things
You're the King above all Kings
You Are
You're the strength in our weakness
You're the love to the broken
You're the joy in the sadness
You Are
Greater things have yet to come
Great things are still to be done
In this city
Where glory shines from hearts alive
With praise for you and love for you
In this city
Greater things have yet to come
Great things are still to be done
In this city
Greater things are still to come
And greater things are still to be done here
Last year it was Might to Save and people were...this year we are proclaiming Him as God of that city and He is.

As you sit here in the same room with me, I must confess...I feel that same distance..what's scary is that I know it's me, not Him. I'm the one drifting.
Chauncey - I'm praying for you! I would have loved to give you a hug good bye, and even drove to DBU while in Dallas, but found out you were somewhere else, too far from where we were. So, know that I'm praying for time, time with Holy Spirit, to soak in His presence, to worship and be held, time to get back your passion. Taste and see that the Lord is good!
I love you!

Chauncey - My prayer for you is that you will not only be effectiv ein your witness, but that you will be wholly fulfilled in Him. I am asking God for one of those head turning things He does that will give you affirmation and encouragement. Love you, Katie
