Living a life where miracles are normal
Ministry in Africa is incredible. This past week has been crazy. Something happens every single day where you feel like you’re living in New Testament times.
Just today my friend Tyler was able to pray for a woman for her sight to be restored, and when she pulled her hands away, her eyesight improved.
He also had about 25 kids following him around to every single house that he went and mothers handing him their crying babies.
It’s been a similar story for me. As we’re going from house to house sharing about Christ, we are seeing people come to a faith in Christ every day. We are praying for miraculous healings. We are praying against evil things in the spiritual world. We are praying for mountainsto move!!
Here is a story from this past week that illustrates the things that the Lord has us doing here.
Stephen is a 17 year old orphan from the eastern part of Kenya. His parents owned a store there when he was a child. When he was 8, a group of raiders came into the store, stole all the goods, and murdered his parents. His uncle was the only one who could take him in. Thankfully he did, but his uncle just recently died of tuberculosis. This left Stephen with absolutely nothing and nowhere to go.
He’d jumped on the back of a truck and traveled around 17 hours to Kitale. He’d spent the previous night on the street and some random (or not so random) kid on the street told him about a school that might take him in…the school where we were working.
not allowed to attend, he’ll likely live on the streets. Stephen’s faith is amazing though. He knows the Lord and the truth that Lord has huge plans for him.
looks as though the school is going to allow him in.

The great thing about God is the way He shows up in the mundane and brings a miracle.
Thanks for the reminder Seth.
I agree with Butch. I love that our God is a God of miracles and surprises.
