there is still hope in the DTES

Matt, becky and myself were on street combat tonight, first if you ask him to break your heart, he does and he definality did tonight. We met this women who was in her 50. She just start to talk to us and we stopped, she just open up on how she was down here for a long time and she had a revelation in the mirrior on saturday, that she has so much to live for, she want to change and she want freedom from addiction. She lost her finger from a fresh eating infection and teeth from drugs. She want to go to treatment. She want to be free. She want to love herself first and then help other people to do the same. Hallejuah. We told her about homestead and her face just lit up and we are going to give her the information about homestead in the next few days. We all pray over and just spoke truth in her life. Her name is paula. We all gave her a hug and we left being encouraged and blessed from the women that has so much hope and desire a change and know that jesus can tranformed her life. Hallejuah!

Isaiah 58 Raw

Raw has started, last night was started with a dance routine by jonathan evan, donny and ian, good job guys, let just said it was freaking hilerious and entertaining :) Worship was great and Aaron preached and then we pray over each other that our heart would align with the father's heart, our heart would feel what the father would feel. The theme chapter for this year is Isaiah 58. Challenging chapter and i think i am going to try and memorize it. Shout it aloud, do not hold back. Raise your voice like a trumpet. Declare to my people their rebellion and to the house of Jacob their sins.
2 For day after day they seek me out; they seem eager to know my ways, as if they were a nation that does what is right and has not forsaken the commands of its God. They ask me for just decisions and seem eager for God to come near them.
3 'Why have we fasted,' they say, 'and you have not seen it? Why have we humbled ourselves, and you have not noticed?' "Yet on the day of your fasting, you do as you please and exploit all your workers.
4 Your fasting ends in quarreling and strife, and in striking each other with wicked fists. You cannot fast as you do today and expect your voice to be heard on high.
5 Is this the kind of fast I have chosen, only a day for a man to humble himself? Is it only for bowing one's head like a reed and for lying on sackcloth and ashes? Is that what you call a fast, a day acceptable to the LORD ?
6 "Is not this the kind of fasting I have chosen: to loose the chains of injustice and untie the cords of the yoke, to set the oppressed free and break every yoke?
7 Is it not to share your food with the hungry and to provide the poor wanderer with shelter— when you see the naked, to clothe him, and not to turn away from your own flesh and blood?
8 Then your light will break forth like the dawn, and your healing will quickly appear; then your righteousness [a] will go before you, and the glory of the LORD will be your rear guard.
9 Then you will call, and the LORD will answer; you will cry for help, and he will say: Here am I. "If you do away with the yoke of oppression, with the pointing finger and malicious talk,
10 and if you spend yourselves in behalf of the hungry and satisfy the needs of the oppressed, then your light will rise in the darkness, and your night will become like the noonday.
11 The LORD will guide you always; he will satisfy your needs in a sun-scorched land and will strengthen your frame. You will be like a well-watered garden, like a spring whose waters never fail.
12 Your people will rebuild the ancient ruins and will raise up the age-old foundations; you will be called Repairer of Broken Walls, Restorer of Streets with Dwellings.
13 "If you keep your feet from breaking the Sabbath and from doing as you please on my holy day, if you call the Sabbath a delight and the LORD's holy day honorable, and if you honor it by not going your own way and not doing as you please or speaking idle words,
14 then you will find your joy in the LORD, and I will cause you to ride on the heights of the land and to feast on the inheritance of your father Jacob." The mouth of the LORD has spoken. The first night went well I believe. I am not as much involved as past years but i love Raw it is a freaking awesome event. teenager come down here on their spring break, doing urban mission. the lord dig that for sure. later dudes

from my devotions tonight from 2 corthinathin 1:3-7

Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of compassion and the God of all comfort, 4who comforts us in all our troubles, so that we can comfort those in any trouble with the comfort we ourselves have received from God. 5For just as the sufferings of Christ flow over into our lives, so also through Christ our comfort overflows. 6If we are distressed, it is for your comfort and salvation; if we are comforted, it is for your comfort, which produces in you patient endurance of the same sufferings we suffer. 7And our hope for you is firm, because we know that just as you share in our sufferings, so also you share in our comfort.

Hallejuah God loves us so much that he comfort us and give us the strength to carry on. how great is our god, what mighty god we serve.

a little peice of my heart.

Why does loving someone so much have hurt so freaking much. i want an open and honesty relationship, it really messy, that was my experience tonight. totally not what i thought it was or was really ready for. i really want to love like 1 cortinathin 13 love.
4Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. 5It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. 6Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. 7It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.
Love never fails

what i learn from listening prayer when i was away for the weekend
Jesus is up on the mountain top and i was at the botton and i look up and i saw him. He saw me and call down, come up here Rebekah. i want to show you something. I hike up top of the mountain it was gruly and hard, i got all sweaty and grossy, i got to the top of the mountain. tired i collapsed at jesus feet with my eyes shutted, Here i am, Jesus. Jesus came over to me and knelt beside and put his arm around me and said roman 8:28 which said And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him who have been called according to his purpose and he told me to open my eyes so i did, what a breathtaking view and i could see everything and jesus turn to me and said see it was worth it all, all the you do is according my purpose and i will show you my glory. your effect pay off, your faith pay off, your trust to walk the mountain and you were blessed in return. i turn to him and i said thanks u and we sat down and talk.

It is a mountain i need to climb, hurt and grossy and messy is neccarsay, lord just give me the strength to do it so i can see the fruit of this the work i am putting in.
