Take a Knee














Reality hit us right on the knee!

It wasn't that long ago when all this was just a process, a thought in our mind. Now, here we were, getting prayed in as the YWAM Kyiv base directors.

It was a great day. We had a lot of meetings that day, and were really excited about the event to come. Phil was meeting with us, sharing about how things were under God's control, and that we were the right people for the job. It's amazing that we knew and understood that, but the closer it actually got for us to be prayed in, the more we questioned what God had called us to do. I guess this is normal though. We are humans and have our doubts.

The time finally arrived! It was time for us to be prayed in, followed by a short speech on what God had showed us during our time home; what God was speaking to us on behalf of YWAM Kyiv. As the nerves set in, the reality that we were now in charge of 50 some people; the reality that we were now responsible to help them grow in their ministries and their relationship with the Lord; the understanding that we had to rebuild YWAM Kyiv, strangely enough, there was peace. It was our time. God had called us and we knew clearly the next steps we were to take.

We took our knee, and took our position, and felt the love and peace of the Lord over us; the rest is still to come :)
