a team of young people learning what it means to have gifts from God to use for His glory…and how powerful they are when we step back and let Him use them…

The Project: Mexico Edition Week 7


t-minus 8 days until the show!
crazy...
i hope you are all planning to come!
Last night we had devo time outside...:) just loving this weather. its absolutely beautiful.
and i read through Isaiah 51:1-15 (i put this passage in an earlier post) and just had the team listen for things that stuck out to them. there is a TON of stuff in it and i just love how God's word speaks to people right where they are. its so personal and so powerful.
then we worked on a couple of scenes with the music :)
and i will just say that we are SO blessed with this team. the music Chelsea has put together is just incredible...its goes perfectly and is just so holy-spirit filled. i LOVE it, and could listen to it all the time. and the kids learn these things so fast. its beautiful and its SO great to see it all coming together.
Last sunday, i went to vespers at Bethel and about halfway through God started speaking to me about the show.
it was like all of a sudden i was watching the show happen and God was sitting next to me, pointing out things that needed to be changed or how things were supposed to look or be said...it was crazy. and all i could think was..."this thing is in 2 weeks, God...you cant just change it..." haha...but, turns out, He can. :)
and on monday the same thing happened when i was in my car, just on my way to class and all of a sudden it was like i was watching it happen. but this time in more detail. and so i had about 25 min til i had to be in class so in the parking lot at school i pulled out my notebook and wrote for like 15 min, details for the whole show, the scripts and words God was putting in my head, how things went, everything. i didnt even have time to think through anything...just wrote.
and then quick typed it up and sent it to sarah. and looking at it on wed with sarah and walking through it...it was incredible.
God changed scripts, rewrote things, added things, and looking at it - it is SO clear what sarah and i can do, and what God can do. all of a sudden it makes a LOT more sense, its clearer, has a more "to the point" message, its crazy.
He is making this incredibly, undeniably clear that this show, this night...is His. and nobody else's. He is claiming all of the glory for Himself and we wouldnt have it any other way.
so i am excited to see how it will all turn out...God is doing His thing.
He will complete it...and we dont have any say in the fact that He waited until the last second and is still finishing things up...we just need to listen and pay attention and follow.
so we will :)
how amazing that we have such a faithful God!
