Ok, so I have chill bumps right now.
Last week, there was a new girl that came into SHE. She said that someone had talked to her at one of the bars about getting out and coming to SHE, but none of us recognized her, so we just figured it was one of the teams before us. We'll call her Soy. Soy has been super sweet and has connected well with the girls at SHE and our team.
Fast forward to today.
We are hanging out with the girls at SHE, and Marilyn and I were here last November, so she pulled up the pictures from our November trip on her laptop to show a few of the girls here. I was upstairs, but they started hollering my name to come downstairs because I needed to see something. Some of you will recognize this picture as it was taken the same night as the pic on my prayer card. Same group of girls - this shot just shows a few more of the ladies we had been talking to that night.
To refresh you on that story, we had been walking around the streets and got into a conversation with these ladies. The power of God was really strong and we got to talk to them and even pray with them. While we were praying one of the ladies (the one on the far left) started to cry and we could tell the presence of God was really moving on her.
Marilyn had this picture up on her computer when I came downstairs, and her and Soy were looking at it. As soon as I saw it, what they had already noticed hit me. The lady on the far left of the picture was Soy!!! We had sowed the seed into her life 6 months ago, and had been praying for her ever since, and now here she was sitting at SHE after just having left the bars last week! It is no coincidence that she came the same week we were here! She was crying as she looked at that picture and heard us say that we have been praying for her since November. What an amazing opportunity for us to see the harvest come from the very seed we had sowed 6 months back. Praise the Lord! How amazing!

that story is really awesome! i continue to pray for you. Working with teams is always rewarding but very demanding. I know you are doing an awesome job out there!
wow. wow. wow.
Don't you just love how God plans it and His timing? No coincidence that you are there at this time, Liz, and that Marilyn "just happened" to bring a team. This will be a story "Soy" will tell to others - now she has a testimony to tell.
Liz!
How incredible! God is so faithful, and so GOOD! He keeps showing me day by day his amazing faithfulness!
I'm so glad that you got to be there to experience this. :)
LOVE on those ladies all you can!
I'm praying for you everyday.
Love you much. :)
