Gott segne Deutschland!!



"Do you not say, 'There are still four months and then comes the harvest'? Behold, I say to you, lift up your eyes and look at the fields, for they are already white for harvest!" Joh 4:35
Sandra took us out on Monday to an amazing park to see the sun set and then to eat at an Okinawan restorant it was a fun day. Okinawa is one of the most amazing places God's glory is revealed through His creation-you cant help but worship!!

May the Lamb that was Slain receive the reward of His suffering!
Greetings Saints in Christ! Here are some pics of our trip to South Korea, it was a good trip but really short. The Lord showed us many things while there. One thing the Lord spoke me about that He has been speaking to me about is the need for people who will count their lives as lost and go into the far parts of the world and share the gospel. The missionaries back in the day went to the countries God was sending them to with their caskets because they never expected to come back but to die on the missionfield we need that kind of passion and zeal for the Lord and His creation today! Asia is so dark and in need of the gospel of Christ, it was crazy seeing people come and worship before the giant buddha, just like in the Old Testament when they would worship before idols it is the same today, they are worshiping the work of their hands. They are so lost and so blind, it must grieve the heart of God to see His creation worship in vain, trying to reach God in vain.





Be blessed by the truth that dwells in you, that He has counted you worthy to partake of the good news of His Son!

This was like 2 months ago but it reminded me of today cuz it is raining and I just think its a cool pic of Doug. Well we have been really busy but it has been a lot of fun, we are more than half way through the semester---CRAzy!! It makes me sad thinking the semester is going to end...It is cool to be part of the different churches here, they all feel like family it will be hard to leave not only them but the 11 other students that are here.
We are getting ready for the Franklin Graham Crusade this weekend then we are heading off to South Korea next week, pretty exciting! Please keep us in your prayers!!
Genesis 15:1
After these things the word of the LORD came unto Abram in a vision, saying, Fear not, Abram: I am thy shield, and thy exceeding great reward.
Matthew 13:44
"Again, the kingdom of heaven is like treasure hidden in a field, which a man found and hid; and for joy over it he goes and sells all that he has and buys that field.
Make the Lord your treasure and reward today, seek Him with all your heart, mind, and soul and you will in no way be ashamed or disappointed!!
In Christ our eternal peace,
Misheru

A Vapor...
Today I have been thinking about our lives and how they are so small compared to eternity. We only have a few years on this earth, it's crazy how we can get so caught up in the here and now and forget that it doesnt really matter because this is but a drip compared to the ocean of eternity. It also made me wonder, what am I really doing with it? It is a precious gift God has given me in order that I might use it for His glory to, in a small way, give Him a little back for all He has done for me. My life could be taken away tomorrow and I think I would be ashamed that I wasted so much of my life on me and accomplishing my will and pleasing myself instead of doing that which is truly necessary, the only thing that will last, getting to know my Savior. It is a sobering thought...are we living for this life or the one that will last forever? Praise God for His neverending grace and mercy which allows us a new chance to live for Him! There is so much to do and so little time...
"Therefore, my beloved brethren, be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that your labor is not in vain in the Lord." 1 Corinthians 15:58

Now introducing.... Shannon and Michelle the Rockstars! Just kidding, we were just helping our friend Tim record some background vocals for the Franklin Graham crusade that is coming up in November. These are actually from a couple of weeks ago but I thought they would be fun to put up.

Sunset on our roof at six in the morning WOO WOO! Its pretty amazing you can see the beach from our roof and its amazing when the sun rises.

This is a drawing of my roomates and its funny cuz that is actually kinda what we all look like. Real Roomates: Nikki, Misty, Shannon, Me, Haley, and Djuji :)

We played at this outside mall as an outreach and this is Me and Keegan and Doug playing it was fun.


That is it for now! God bless. Love, Michelle

Amazing park right by my house
My Housemate Haley getting "blown" off the roof!
Typhoon ShanShan! It was amazing!
Yesterday morning we went to eat breakfast at the Macaroni Grill on the Marine base with Sandra and her three adorable children. Sandra and her husband Damian (who is in the Marines) are planning on moving to Italy in a few months to start a church. They have been a huge blessing and example to us and have spoiled us in so many ways!
"For they did not gain possession of the land by their own sword, nor did their own arm save them; but it was Your right hand, Your arm, and the light of Your countenance, because You favored them." (Psalm 44:3)
May the Lord fill you with His Holy Spirt and strengthen you to do all the desire that is in His heart.

Matthew 9:37-38
Then He said to His disciples, “The harvest truly is plentiful, but the workers are few. Therefore pray the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers in His harvest.”

This verse has been coming to my mind so many times since I have been here. Oh the need for Christ in our world! Most of the people here haven’t even heard of Jesus Christ. They are held in bondage by spirits, their forefathers and so many other evil things. Another verse that has been coming to my mind is:
Romans 10:14 “How then shall they call on Him in whom they have not believed? And how shall they believe in Him of whom they have not heard? And how shall they hear without a preacher?” We, as Christians have such a great treasure in ourselves. I learned in class the other day that Paul counted himself as a debtor to the gospel and to the people to bring them the gospel. I pray that more of our generation rises up and counts their lives as nothing to share Christ with those who have never heard before. Okinawa is only a small part of the world that hasn't heard of Jesus, there is so much need for "beautiful feet."

Tonight we just got through with Revelation class. It was a long day 4 classes, pretty crazy put Pastor Tommy and his wife Joanna are really good teachers. At class tonight we talked about the churches and to the church of Sardis he says, "Therefore if you will not watch, I will come upon you as a thief, and you will not know what hour I will come upon you." Revelation 3:3. One thing the Lord reminded me of was the passage in Matthew 25 about the ten virgins and how 5 of them were ready and the other 5 were not, Pastor Tommy raised a good point that the verse in Rev. was written to Christians and that maybe it could be possible that a Christian be left behind if he is not watching and waiting. I thought it was interesting and at the same time a wake up call, just like it must have been to the church of Sardis, "Wake up and watch!" God says. Another thing Pastor Tommy talked about was Jewish weddings and how a bride was to know when her groom would come for her. There were certain signs she would get, mostly he was building a house and as she saw it being completed she knew the time was closer for him to come and get her. The same goes for us, we are watching in these last days all the signs of the return of our glorious Bridegroom being fulfilled and we should all the more like the Jewish bride preparing ourselves for our marriage. Jesus is coming for a pure bride, therefore walk holy for He is Holy!!
These were things that encouraged me tonight and I hope they encourage you. He who has this hope in him purifies himself just as HE is pure. Be watchful my friends the day is near. Do not put your hope and expectation in this life, don't waste your time trying to fill yourself with the things of this world invest in the everlasting, eternal kingdom that will soon be revealed and in the Savior who alone can satisfy.
With much love in our beautiful Bridegroom who is coming soon,
Michelle

Woo first blog! Pretty much Okinawa is the coolest place in the whole world. Me and Shannon got here a week and a half ago and the whole time has been filled with the Lord's blessings one right after the other. Today we had a day off, we went to this water fall up north about an hour away. It was the prettiest place I have ever seen. It's a rain water waterfall, I guess, the water was freezing but it felt nice cuz its really hot here. Well I better go to bed cuz I have to get up early to finish homework...

"from Jesus Christ , the faithful witness, the firstborn from the dead, and the ruler over the king of the earth. To Him who loved us and washed us from our sins in His own blood , and has made us kings and priests to His God and Father, to Him be glory and dominion both now and forever and ever. Amen." Revelation 1

Guten Nacht! Der Herr Segne Euch.
