and i cant tell you how cute and cozy the sunny brooks market place is. the presence there is wonderful, filled with signs, art, vintage things, all expressing in silence a love for life, people and the Lord. God is in this place and i love it. it is beautiful, even this morning someone came in and asked for prayer. we laid hands on this man and right then and there the pain in his ear, neck and face went from the hurting level of a 2 (1 hurting most, 10 not at all) to a 5 or 6. God is so good...it gave me the chills...
its been very chillax...when we got in last night we just hung around and talked, then this morning i have just been helping around the shop/restaurant. right now I'm sitting at the library waiting on their son Taylor to meet me after his class. i will be joining him for a college/young adult bible study/worship thing. I'm sure it will be great.
I've only almost cried 3 times since i have been here...and it hasn't even been 24hours yet. its good though...being with people that are daily working on helping Haiti, daily being in prayer, daily serving others, daily trusting that funds will be provided, and KNOW the community that i left in port-au-prince. last night we talked a lot about the kids, Dorothy, and being here in America verses Haiti.
I'm still praying for space to cry with my savior over not being present in flesh with the community in port-au-prince. time will bring healing, but i am hoping here will be a good start to humbling my pride and preparing my heart to be present in America, in Kansas City.
the brooks family truly have a wonderful ministry here in south Georgia. check them out at www.muchministries.org
blessings,
Natasha :)
