40- Isaiah 54

verse three says:

"...For the mountains may depart and the hills be removed,
but my steadfast love shall not depart from you,
and my covenant of peace shall not be removed,"
says the Lord, who has compassion on you.

39- Jesus Lover of My Sould - The Hymn

Jesus, Lover of My Soul

Words: Charles Wesley, 1740 (Wis. 11:26)
Music: Joseph Parry, 1879

---

1.

Jesus, lover of my soul,
let me to thy bosom fly,
while the nearer waters roll,
while the tempest still is high.
Hide me, O my Savior, hide,
till the storm of life is past;
safe into the haven guide;
O receive my soul at last.

2.
Other refuge have I none,
hangs my helpless soul on thee;
leave, ah! leave me not alone,
still support and comfort me.
All my trust on thee is stayed,
all my help from thee I bring;
cover my defenseless head
with the shadow of thy wing.

3.
Thou, O Christ, art all I want,
more than all in thee I find;
raise the fallen, cheer the faint,
heal the sick, and lead the blind.
Just and holy is thy name,
I am all unrighteousness;
false and full of sin I am;
thou art full of truth and grace.

4.
Plenteous grace with thee is found,
grace to cover all my sin;
let the healing streams abound,
make and keep me pure within.
Thou of life the fountain art,
freely let me take of thee;
spring thou up within my heart;
rise to all eternity.

38- The Faithful God of Miracles who Provides

I do nothing.
and HE does everything.
I am clueless
and HE knows the details of tomorrow
I cant work it out
and HE already did

At the beginning of this week, we had a meeting for Nepal and SendOutCards. At the team meeting beforehand, we realized we're in a pickle. We hadn't had communication with the orphanage, didn't know if the land would be prepped for the playground, several team members didn't have enough funds, we weren't sure if we would have enough time with the kids, not sure where we were staying etc... Just alot of stuff.
At the meeting we invited people too, we talked about our needs and spent some time in prayer. We asked God to work in Nepal, help our team, and to basically setup this trip.
Praise God!!!
1- After the meeting I was talking with Mark (team leader) and a friend Eric. I happened to log on to Skype and got to talk to one of our contacts and got some awesome contact info for the orphanage as well as answers to other questions.
2- Wednesday one of our team members receives a check for $1,000.
3- Thursday another team member receives $1,000.
4- We also found out that our whole team will be able to go.
5- Also, someone Mark contacted in Nepal, got pictures and measurements of the land we will be building the playground on.

Not to mention the other things God is showing His goodness through.

I LOVE THE MAN JESUS

37- Miracles

God has been doing so many cool things in my life lately. The other night my sisters and I randomly got to talk to these 2 women who are doing awesome things for the kingdom! We talked for an hour and a half and it was obvious by all God arranged our paths. Last night God really encouraged me through some stuff. Yesterday I was looking for my passport for a long time. Today, as I was trying to spend time with God, my mind wondered or whatever, but then He showed me right where to look. I found my passport.

God is soo good.

LORD YOU ARE GOOD AND YOUR MERCY ENDURES FOREVER!!!

He is Victorious! There is no-one like HIM

34- Nepal in October

Greetings,
I hope this letter finds you well. I just recently graduated from the University of Central Missouri with a degree in Music Technology. The degree essentially allows me to be able to produce music. Although, I am unclear in how and where God wants me to serve, one opportunity that I feel strongly about is a short-term mission to Nepal.
Sometime last year, I got a call from a man named Uttam. Uttam serves the kingdom by helping disciple and train young people in Nepal. I had a great meeting with him and thought about the idea of going sometime. Later on, a good friend of mine shared that he wanted to build a playground at one of the orphanages there. This also got my attention as I love kids. The idea of using music with children, especially orphans, is something that really stirs my heart. I love the idea of really using the power of music to change hearts. I would love to be able to sing of the Father’s heart to those who do not know it. I have since met with a small team planning on going to Nepal to install a playground, yes, but even more to show the love of Jesus by encouraging community and revealing the heart of the Father.
My chief invitation is to ask for prayer partners. I do not want to attempt to serve the kingdom in such a way, without a prayer covering. Please consider putting me and the team as well on your prayer list.
There is a financial need. I will need to raise around $3000 to serve in Nepal. I ask you to please pray about being apart of this mission. If God wants you to give, please do. At the same time, don’t feel pressured to give either. I trust God has set apart the funds.
I specifically hope to really use my gift in music to draw people together and allow them to see Jesus. I am excited to sing over and bless orphans. I want to love the ones that Father loves. What better place to do that than at the top of the world!
If any of you have any other thoughts or questions please email me at andbryce@gmail.com . Also, to get some random thoughts on life, my blog is andbryce.blogspot.com
Even broader than just this trip, I would love to have prayer support as I endeavor into a season of unknown. I do not know where the Lord will take me and would love to have some prayer support in the journey. If this is something you are also interested in, please email me.

Bless you!
