Captivate my heart, dear Jesus
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I love You, Lord.
I love you too, my dear girl.I have a question to ask You.
Yeah?But I'm sure You already know what it is. *smiles*
Yes, I do. But ask Me. I wanna hear it.Alright. *grin*
Would I, by any chance, be a doctor next time?
Nope.No?
Nope.Really ah?
Yup.Then, what am I gonna be? What will I be doing in Africa next time?
Well, you'll certainly be enjoying what you will be doing more than just being a doctor.Huh? What will I do then?
You will bring bags of food to families. You will share my Love with them in Swahili. You will pray for kids with bloated stomachs and they will get well. I'm gonna make you so happy.Wow. Okay. Swahili?
Yup. I will teach you to speak Swahili.I know it's kinda impossible that I can make up all this conversation with my own mind, and this picture that I see, but God, can you send me someone who will confirm this all?
Alrighty. I'll do just that.Send Jer Ming?
Okay.Jer Ming prays in tongues
*I felt Your presence so strong, that I was going to fall to the floor*
Jerm: God says, "
My ways are pleasant, and My paths are peace. I want to show you great things that you do not know. I'm gonna open doors for you. Don't worry. I will provide. Just come follow Me. Just come follow Me." I see this tree, planted by the water. God says, "
Dig your roots deeper into Me, into my Word."
Jerm: Mali? I saw a desert, but not a scorching hot desert, but a beautiful desert.
Me: Timbuktu is in Mali.
I remembered when I asked You, why Africa? And You told me, "Because I wanna show you lots and lots of stars."
Jerm: Wow. God is so cool. I believe. I believe.
I believe too, God.
God, I wish I could fully capture and remember this moment exactly, where your promises are revealed to me. This is what I will remind myself with when people laugh and say, it's foolishness, but I will still go Your way.
I love You, Lord, so much. I love Your presence. Your love is better than life.
