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

So yes as Katie Tunstall says in her song Weirdo..."Still a weirdo after all these years"... yes yes I truely am. All my 23 years or at least what I can remember of them I've been unique,quirky even. I think we all must feel that way, that we are extra weird compared to the next person..we see it every day, people trying to fit in , be it with there clothes,lanuage, music, taste in films, hair do's, hair donts, tan..too much tan, no tan at all, friends, opinions, bringing each others group down so the one we are in, the "norm" we fit into seems like the "right" one. Are we..no matter what group we fall under or how much we try not to be in a group.. still trapped in that cycle of not comfortable in our own skin?? Yes some days its easy to say "well yes I am comfortable in my skin and happy with who I am" but how many days are there with the doubt,the unsureness, the self conciousness, the unsatisfation with our own bodies, our own minds, ...

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...

For when I am weak, then I am strong.

The testing of our faith, the trials...to persever, to grow weary...finding our strength in Him. For the past four days I have been wrestling with my own heart. Battling with my flesh, pressing forward even though much of me just wants to stand still but I dont like to stand still, if there is one thing I dont like the most of all is not getting to know the Lord new each day and just giving into self-pity and this want to put a hault on time. Yes, life is ever changing and moves happen, new people come, others go! Yes, family are missed and friends too, and of course I dont have answers for people when I am asked where?... what?.. when? and Why?...but none of that is anything big when my vision is set on Christ. This morning I continued to read in Psalm, amidst Psalm44 there is a gem, in verse 8 it says:  In God we boast all day long, And praise Your name forever. No matter what is going on around us, or how we think we feel, we must be open for ...
