Fire, Water, Holy Spirit, Church

Hi to those close to my heart and pray friends!

i just wanted to say hello and share some personal thoughts with close friends. i know that being here has put my feet on different ground and i have to tell you have changed quiet a bit, so dont expect the same cath back, i am a bit off the charts at the moment, and everyday here just does somethiong different to me. I know i am being pulled in a complete different way which might not have been expectant. but there was a word that was brought the other day that, God was going to shake some of our lives and take us in an opposite direction, well thats me at the moment. I know that God has set me on a journey and this has been the beginning of my life actually, a launching pad for me to run from.
I thought for a while that i would be applying for long term here at Iris, but that is not on my heart at the moment. i know what is on my heart and it came by like a silent wind in the night, I have had a few places on my heart while being here, and so i might be a running cath at the moment, well for the next while, literally living out what the bible has been saying. i almost feel like there is more to just learning here for 2 months, but i literally cant go back to 9-5 job, there is more to it then that. my heart has been ripped open and God has done surgery and shown me so much, will share more when i get back to SA. But for one He has called me to live day to day.

God has baptised me in the 4 baptisms, Water,fire,HolySprit and Body of Christ, and i really believe He done that to equip me,train me and let me go!
so this is just something i needed to share so, you need to pray for me that i go in the right direction and that God covers me with His blood and sends his holy spirit ahead of me.
i wanted to let you all know as i know the hand full of people i am sending this to will be my prayer support and guide me and love me for where i am at!

love you all, will be in contact soon. i am staying here in Pemba for the 3 week outreach i am doing after this week. it will be good!have been going swimming in the sea every morning, its so amazing, we hardly have water here, so washing with soap is seldom, well for the past 3 weeks, i ahve not had a proper shower, so imagine what that feels like!! but thats the joys of missions in Africa! you get used to it, trust me!

love
Catherine

Hey to all my loyal fans out there!

its Cath still out in the bush of mozambique,
for those who prayed for my hands its getting better, had the stiche sout
last night under the stars on the front porch of my house. it was sore
but my hand feels better now, just got to give it a few days to heal.

otherwise things are going along as God planned them, i might not
always agree with what he is doing but, dont have all they say all the
time. lets just say am being pushed to my limits in God and my faith is
building all the time, God is just so full of grace here. you realise
each day here that its a new day in God and you just wait for God to
release something new in ones life.
The scripture God gave me was 1 Peter 1:1-10, if you are praying for
me pray that scripture it encourages me alot.
there is so much to learn out here, and all the more to do, but move
according to what God is doing!

love you all
cath

HI ALL

THIS is a quick note to ask for some prayer. its a bit
crazy here. i was doing fine, but saturday i fell and cut my hand open
really badly,but God took care of me and sent people to help me, i
had to get stiches and cant use it at the moment and its really
sore.
I realise alot is against me here, and its a constant
spiritual battle, i know God has me here for so much and cant give
up now, and i am really beggining to seek God in a different way its amazing, but
now i have to rely on my house mates to take care of me , but they
are great. thanks for your prayers so far.

love
cath
