Back in the Burgh'
Wow, only a few blog posts all week. I feel terrible about not writing more this past week. I can say though, there wasn't much time. Leaving the houses 7:30, sometimes 6:30 in the morning and returning 11:00 at night is a busy schedule.
So many things to say about the past week in Moose Factory, but I don't have the time or energy to type all of that out. I will say this: Some folks wanted to stay longer, some folks were ready to leave. Maybe some folks thought we could do more or did too much. Whatever the case, it reminds me of a great hymn, "Whate'er My God Ordains Is Right." The second verse says:
"Whate’er my God ordains is right,
He never will deceive me
He leads me by the proper path,
I know He will not leave me
I take, content,
What He hath sent
His hand can turn my griefs away
And patiently I wait His day.
This past week was in God's good and perfect will. He accomplished what He wanted to, and used us exactly the way he wanted to. So we can rest in the fact that the work done in Moose Factory is not only God's perfect will, but he will see it to completion. Seeds that were planted will grow, relationships that were started will continue, and hearts that were touched by the Holy Spirit will be stirred.
God exceeded our expectations beyone belief. Using people a completely different, and more useful ways than we could ever imagine. More relationships were built, with not only the Cree Gospel Chapel, but with the nonbelievers on the island. As we continue to show God's love in "the Moose," the more the Holy Spirit will drive out the darkness, and God's light will shine on the dear souls of this island and the surrounding James Bay area.
On behalf of Team Moose Factory 2012, we want to thank you for your amazing support, both physically and spiritually. For your enthusiasm in this ministry, even though some of you have never been there. For the hours upon hours of planning, prepping, and praying for us. The Lord has showed us much this week, and we will never be the same.
There are already talks about what this ministry will look like in Moose Factory next year. Please pray for these preperations, that we may continue to follow God's will and glorify Him in every way both here, and in "The Moose."
