Prayer and support!

Dear friends,                                                                                     Date: 18 November 2011
                                                                                                                       Prayer & Support
As you may know, I am at the moment coming to the end of my second semester at Calvary Chapel Bible College in Siegen, Germany. Over the last two semesters God has been so faithful to put a burden on my heart for missions and has this semester broken my heart for China. It has been such a blessing for me to be shown through the Word of God and answered pray, (which has blown my socks off!) that he is leading me to China in the future to serve Him and I desire so much that:

"The earth will be filled with the knowledge of the glory of the Lord, as the water cover the sea"
-Habakkuk2:14

However I know He has much that He wants me to learn and to grow before this comes to pass and I am so very glad that He is leading me step by step. Otherwise it would all be very overwhelming.

As of now, I am praying for direction on where God wants me next semester. I will be truly happy wherever He calls me, for I know His plan, no matter how stretching or hard it will be, is the best and will bring Him all the glory He deserves.
There are two areas that are on my heart to pray for, firstly my continued studies at Bible College- this may involve moving to another campus such as Murrietta, Califiornia as I pursue Gods guidence in His equiping me for His work and secondly I am praying whether I should continue my studies while serving a missionary family here in Europe.
Both of these present the same challenges however and I would greatly apprecitate prayer for:
  • Direction in which area God would have me go.
  • A continued burden for China. There are 10,000 new believers a day in China. Please join me in prayer for them and for Gods plan for me there.
  • Provision:
If I am to return to bible college the provision for the costs of tuition, accomadation, flights and a student visa are high, which in my eyes seem huge however I know with God all things are possible.(Matt19:26)
On the other hand if God leads me to serve a missionary family in Europe I will also need continued support and provision to be able to furfill the service He calls me into there.
  • Finally, please pray that I am open, willing and obedient to where God leads me and that I could say as Paul did, that “For me to live is Christ and to die is gain.” (Phil1:21)

I know you may not be able to help financially but prayer is just as important. If you are able to give financial support or are willing to pray for my ministry and my continued walk of faith with the Lord please do contact me with any questions.

Finally, I would like to say thank you for reading this letter and for considering my needs for
prayer and financial support. I am excited about his calling for me to learn in order to be sent out and hope you can share in my excitement.

May God bless you abundantly,
Eimear

Have you ever noticed things happening in your day or events happening in your life when you say to yourself..that was just weird, not normal or no one could have forseen it..like incidents were planned to happen, ment to happen but there was no way you or anyone else could have seen it coming...or even planned it for that matter! Its weird when that happens isnt it. For me its been happening a lot lately, but I really do think it was always happening in my life and also in your life but we just dont see it, or if we do we write it off as being some odd coincidence. During this summer I've been longing to study the bible more and more..ok so that doesnt sound like everyones cup of tea but it is mine-its like a big mug of barrys tea to me! Friends of mine have and are studying in a bible college in Siegen, Germany (Calvary Bible college). The more and more I heard about the bible college and studying the word, the more I grew excited about having the opportunity to study and tau...

College year 2012/2013

Its been a little while since I wrote last. When my writing stops or I go quiet, sometimes its because I am kinda standing still in my life in a way...this time it has been because of fear. The last two weeks have flown by...each day has been such a mix, with hopeless moments followed by encouragement from the Lord. His steadfast lovingkindness definetly sums up my last two weeks. College is a huge challenge for me. I am so thankful to know that I'm ment to be there. God has shown this to me clearly through His Word and opened the doors for me to go to college. It was given to me by Him and its a gift I am thankful for it. But boy is it a challenge!! The course I am doing doesnt have a whole lot of class hours, I havnt had that many exams so far and overall it shouldnt be that intimidating, but to me it is. I am 25, (26 next month...mini life crisis ahead!!:)) and I have never been good at dealing with academic stuff. I have always wanted to teach children. Always....

Rain drops keep falling on my head!

Today here in Cork, it is definetly an umbrella day! Each day here in Ireland the weather can be so different. Yesterday we had snow and sun and today we have lots of rain. Each day we can have many thoughts, worries, wants and needs. Each day God is the same. Each day His Word remains the same. Each day His promises are true. In Matthew6:25 Jesus says: 'Therefore I tell you, do not be anxious about your life, what you will eat or what you will drink, nor about your body, what you will put on. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothing?'   Matthew6:34 Jesus says, 'Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.' Please note that I am not saying that these things arent important and I do not expect a package outside my door with an outfit picked out and a food basket next to it saying 'with love from God' each morning. Of course God provides ...
