Hello everyone. I am trying to get back to posting every
Monday now but it was good to see how many people read Friday's post about
Moses so hopefully this won't be too confusing.

This past week has been good to be back in Swaziland
after our prayer retreat in South
Africa. We got some good rest and enjoyed
some powerful worship but it's nice to be home. Kristin and I have stopped
going to Pastor Sambo's church and instead are focusing more of our time at the
Carepoint. This week we have helped cook, continued with the Bible Study,
played with the kids, and done our best to encourage the workers and
missionaries there.

There is a 10 year old girl at the carepoint named Nobile
(yes, that name does have a click in it) who loves to practice her English and helps
out with the younger kids. On Friday though, she started to complain of stomach
pains and said she was suffering. She asked the teacher to do something for
her, asked me to do something, and asked me to make the teacher do something,
but neither one of us had anything to give her. My first aid kit consists of a Ziploc
filled with band-aids, Neosporin, and cotton balls.

So I told her, "I don't have anything to give you but I can
pray for you." She thanked me and sat down. I put a hand on her and simply prayed
that God would take away the pain so that she could play and learn.

After I was done she turned to the teacher and said
something in SiSwati. The teacher then told me, "God has tested your anointing."
I was confused but she explained, "Nobile said that the pain is gone and she
said, ‘God is alive!'"

I was blown away and all I could say was "Praise Him!" I am
so thankful that God showed himself to be real and powerful to all of us that
day. It shows that God is listening to our prayers and cares about us. Thank
you Jesus!
