Worship by the Campfire at Okuma


It is kind of hard to see the pictures, my camera is not that good in the dark. We were so blessed to just sit by the fire and worship the Lord. God is so awesome. In the day I went out investigating in the neighborhoods out in the countryside. It was so amazing to me, to see these small villages. But what blew me away was the realization that most of the people up here have never heard of Jesus Christ. While I drove through this village, there was a house that had been torn down. I stopped and gestered to an old Okinawan man and asked him if I could take some of the old wood. He stated that I could take all I want. We had so much wood for the next two nights. Big chunks of hardwood, that burned for a long time. We had a roaring fire for hours. The Worship was sweet, the fire was hot, God is so good.

Don't worry Nicky, half of us were massively sick most of the time. Literally right after a worship song you would hear someone throw up in the woods a little ways away. A large detail Tom conveniently left out... But the Lord still blessed us is so many ways ^_^ as he point out. God is good!
