Graduated but still a Student

A little more than a week has past since graduating from the Discipleship  Training School and I am still processing and reflecting on all that The Lord  has done in 5 months. 

During the lecture phase God complete transformed my heart in ways that only He could. 

I had a new understanding on love & how much unconditional love he has for us. I began hear Gods voice (no I'm not some weirdo, God is always speaking  and he might even be speaking to you right now!) I started to see God as a  father, a mother, a lover, and even as a friend. Ultimately I grew deeper in my relationship with him while He constantly poured out his love on me.
During the outreach phase I was stretched and challenged in my faith  yet I held tight to the promises that the King of Kings has given us. 

While traveling about the 10:40 window of Mexico our team served in a variety of places. These included teaching basic health in schools, doing youth programs in town plazas, working physically for recently planted churches,  preaching and doing children programs in persecuted churches, hiking up mountain sides to find people who did't yet know Christ, and much more.
As we were lead by the Holy Spirit we planted seeds and interceded for town and also saw many salvations and miracles.

God's goodness doesn't stop on graduation day. The best advice that a speaker told us  is not to graduate but to keep being a student and keep learning. 

My next step is exactly that: I'm returning to the University of the Nations in September to do a nine month intensive School of Biblical Studies. 

Thank you so much for your support throughout the past 5 months - lives were changed because of you. Thank You!
(The migrant school, where many children received lots of well-needed love!)
