Two Life-Changing Tools for Spiritual Growth

While I was MC-ing Yahweh Street Ministries Ladies Retreat, I gave a brief devotion emphasizing our need to spend time with God. I shared answers to feeling spiritually adrift and longing for something more, a life change or spiritual growth. Two things make the difference: listening to, and responding to, God.

Come Awake Cover 3D

Learning to listen and respond to God with Come Awake

Out of my desire to help others find the missing spiritual piece in their lives, I wrote Come Awake. The book is a devotional/journal training manual. It’s what I use to mentor people who want to grow closer to God and work out their lives to gain inner peace. In it teach reading the Bible for life-change and how to respond in prayer. If you’re looking for someone to help you strengthen your spiritual life, use God’s word and pray effectively, then I suggest trying Come Awake. And if you are mentoring others you can order copies to aid your work with them.

NT in 75 Days

Reading NT in 75 Days

Reading the Bible in such a way as to hear God speak into your life situation is a powerful life changer. Another tool I’m using to help me read the Bible is the New Testament in 75 Days app for Apple products. I’ve had several ask for the link to the app. Check it out. If you don’t have Apple capability you can download the NT in 75 Days Reading Schedule and read along using your own Bible or an online one.

As you will find in Come Awake, you can change your life by reading and praying in only 20 minutes a day. I stretch it to 30 minutes when I have time. Anybody can find 20 minutes to invest in a life-changing relationship with God. I challenge mentorees to put effort into spending time with God this way, setting aside 20 minutes five or six days a week for at least 21 days in a row. Twenty-one days is usually the amount of time for creating habits. And how cool is it to have created a habit of spending meaningful time with God!

How do you mentor and lead people in spiritual growth? What have you found to help you read God’s Word and respond in prayer?

Arrival into Iganga

Upon arrival in Iganga, a village of 30,000 people, we drove through after the people worked all day. They were rustling about the market buying their day’s food. The people get paid at the end of the day (like Bible times) and then can buy their food to cook for the evening. They fix dinner which may be eaten anywhere from 8:30 to 10 p.m. Here are some great pictures out of the van window.

By the time we arrived at the missionary house, it was known throughout the village that we were in town. When we pulled into the metal gated yard at the house, the children from the orphanage were waiting on us. They jumped up and down clapping and smiling. As we exited the vans they each came forward with a unique handshake and a “Welcome” and “Habari” which is Swahili for “How are you?”

New Friends with the Orphans

I was so humbled. These children are so welcoming and glad to see us. As I mingling with the kids, a young girl of about 5 years approached and bowed to her knees before me. I nearly cried. I felt I needed to bow to her. I bent over and picked her up and hugged her tight. She was so precious. As a sign of respect, it is the custom for girls to bow as they approach. The girls all sat on the ground in a circle around Jacque. I approached as they were getting acquainted, and one of the older girls that spoke English asked me how old I was. I gave them the year that I was born and let them do the math. That’s because my kids aren’t with me to remind me how old I am. (And no, I’m not telling you here!) The children here are so very respectful and age is highly respected. Discipling them this week will be extremely fulfilling.

The kids had to leave shortly after our arrival, before sundown. And the large metal gate was locked behind them. Apparently, it is very dangerous to be out at night. The gate reminds me of the story from the Bible about Sodom and Gomorrah where the traveler came into Lot’s house and the town came knocking on the door. Moses, our house guard, sat just inside the gate with his bow and arrow and guarded us all night. We came in for dinner, which by the way was an amazing meal! The food here is all fresh, real food.

After dinner, we sat out under a nearly starless night and talked while some awesome local music was playing loudly across the road. They were having a birthday party and the local music reminded me of what I would hear in Mexico, lively and fun. I’m positive one could salsa or zumba to it.

We settled in for the night. I took a shower that is arranged by gravity not water pressure, think of trickle. No problem, I was thankful for running water and a toilet in the missionary house. Most of the country has squat latrines and no paper. then I crawled into a mosquito netted bed of the same type of foam mattress that was in the hotel in Entebbe. It was good to lay down and elevate my swollen feet (the plane ride still taking a toll on my extremities). Slept awesome!

Remember the pictures of the market. The orphans that escaped from the north scavenge for scraps of food after the market is closed. This is where Phil began collecting the kids and taking care of them. Where will God break our hearts to begin making a difference in the lives on others.

Entebbe Road

After staying the night in the Entebbe Flight Hotel, we loaded into the vans and had the ride of our lives. Driving in Uganda is an adventure. I decided I’d breathe once I put my feet back on the dirt. Holding my breath beat the constant gasping for air. While driving, there is absolutely no personal space and no stop lights or stop signs. The roads have British style lanes (opposite sides of the road), but these lanes are really only suggestions. They drive and walk all over the road. Honking is the friendly communication of, “Hey, I’m here.” The drivers honk and pass blind while going over a hill. “Bike” lanes are part of the side road and are used by motorcycle taxis, bikes, pedestrians and vehicles too. Big trucks pass amazingly close to people walking, even very small children. Absolutely frightening!

We stopped in Kampala, Uganda at a mall with a Wal-Mart type of store called the Game. Phil picked up some things while we began absorbing the culture. Always aware that we had to stay together. Peter, his wife, Ken and Susan watched over us and the vans.

Coke is King in Sugar Cane

Coke

Coke is great in Uganda!

I had a bitter lemon drink that was very refreshing. It was a sparkling lemonade that had the taste of the lemon rind. Chuck got a bottle coke. THE OLD COKE made with real locally grown sugar cane. He let me have a sip. Yummy! It was delicious. Why can’t we have real Coke back home? The difference is astounding. Makes me want to grow sugar cane and make my own Coke.

Once Phil got the prepaid internet card and other things, we loaded back into the van for another breathless ride. Some of our team saw monkeys while on this road. The locals don’t like them. The monkeys eat their crops and are menaces, “worse than squirrels at home,” said Phil.

Ugandan Roadside Cook

We stopped for fast food in Mabira Forest on the road to Iganga. The roadside in this spot in the forest had lots of people selling food. We were told to stay in the van and close the windows. The sellers mobbed the vans. Susan got out and negotiated the buying of food. This was amazing to watch.

I learned that since our skin is white, we are considered rich people. They call us muzungu, which is the word for the color white, but to them means rich people.

Through the windows, Susan handed us chicken on a stick, grilled bananas and bottled water. I’ve never had better tasting chicken. Take a look.

I Saw The Nile!

After eating our Ugandan style fast food, we started back down the road. We approached the Nile River and crossed the bridge. There were school children walking on the bridge and political signs posted on it.

Later we arrived in Iganga. The next post will be about our route to the missionary house through Iganga.

Seeing the Nile was something I never thought I’d do. Pretty cool. More pictures are uploaded on Facebook. Check them out.

Entebbe Night and Morning

After landing at 10:15 p.m. Uganda time, we stood in the VISA line and paid our clean $50 for a pass to minister in Uganda. At the airport we saw a young man carrying a semi-automatic walking around. We were stopped and had our trunks searched before we were able to get out of the airport.

Once we were cleared to leave we met up with Phil just outside. After hugs and greetings, Phil said follow me. Chuck was targeted as the elder and attracted several “helpers” that tried to detain him. I followed Phil and looked back to see he was detained. I didn’t want to go back, and sort of panicked. I hollered, “Chuck, Phil said come on.” Phil had made arrangements for the native elder, Peter to handle the helpers. They were trying to double dip. Chuck finally walked away to follow us.

We loaded our trunks and bags into two vans and drove a few minutes to the hotel for the night.

Entebbe Flight Hotel

Entebbe Flight Hotel

At Entebbe’s Flight Hotel. We drove into a guarded gate and and was escorted to a room with four poster bed and mosquito net. The windows were open with iron bars across them and a oscillating fan was mounted to the ceiling to keep us cool. There was a pipe with hot and cold running water and a drip system in one corner of the small bathroom a sink in the other and a toilet. Nothing else, no shower curtain, no counter, just the basics, but after 20 something hours of traveling a shower and a bed was so welcome.

The bed was a single foam mattress that slept awesome no matter how thin. I was so tired and weary of sitting that laying down was simply awesome!! I slept like a baby.

I awoke to freshen up, put on my long skirt and go to breakfast with our team, Phil, and Ugandans, Peter, Susan (his daughter), her mother, and Ken (Susan’s brother), and Keith (Susan’s infant son). We had buttered toast, omelet with tomatoes and cheese and bananas (short, little ones that were tangier and sweeter than ours back home. To drink we had Fresh squeezed mango juice, yum, and African Tea. The teas was exquisit. They mixed warmed milk, African tea, and ginger to make the very milky drink. It sort of tasted like flavored warm milk. I had fresh unprocessed sugar to sweeten it. Extra yummy. Jacque said it reminded her of Starbuck’s Chai Latte.

After breakfast we packed and sat in the courtyard waiting on the van. It had a power steering leak and Peter took it to a shop to have it fixed. We are on Uganda time. Everything moves slow. Relaxed. The weather here is soooo nice. below 80 and cool breeze blowing. While we waited Ken took us walking about the hotel We walked up several floors and saw Lake Victoria and the village of Entebbe.

I asked for a bathroom and was escorted. My escort waited for me just outside the door. That felt weird.

When the vans were loaded, we took off down Entebbe Road.

Flight to Uganda

The team pulling out.

Team Leaving out of Texas

Team Leaving out of Texas

Due to a weird passport rule that we were unaware of, our leader, James was denied flight with us. His passport was valid and due to expire the month after our return. We didn’t know that Uganda requires a passport that is good for six months after the trip. We thought James could fly with us to Amsterdam, our first layover and work with the embassy to get an extension. Turns out Holland requires a valid passport for three months after trip. James had to stay in Houston and get an expedited passport re-issue on Monday and fly out that afternoon.

After a disappointing start at the airport, the rest of the team stood in line to board. We took off at 4 p.m. Houston time.

Pretty cool to see such a bright midnight. By this time we were flying over Ireland (35,000 feet is as close as I’ve ever been to Ireland) with an hour left until landing in Amsterdam. With little or no sleep we start the day there at 7 a.m. That’s eight hours ahead of Houston and we didn’t have much night. Where’s the Starbucks!

It’s amazing how dehydrating long flights can be. Little cup sips don’t cut the dryness. Houston to Amsterdam (9 hr 15 min.) followed by 8 hr 20 min. (Amsterdam to Kigali then 1 hr 5 min (Kigali to Entebbe) makes 18 hours and 40 minutes in the air. I could drink the Nile River!

I had no idea how difficult flying that long would be on my body. My feet hurt horribly and my wrists and hands too. They were so swollen and puffy from the altitude. I learned I could never be an astronaut. Maybe I should walk more laps around the plane on the ride home.

Add 3 hours layover to the flight time and we’re finally ready for some sleep before a 4 hour van ride to Iganga, Uganda.

Obstacles to the Mission

Ever notice when you set out to do what God asks, the going gets tougher? Opposition mounts to discourage and cause doubts. Seems like the enemy is working as hard as we are.

That’s where our Uganda team is right now, in the middle of one obstacle after another as we prepare for our trip. We are set to leave Saturday, July 30th and the setbacks and difficulties have been numerous. But through it all we remained steadfast in our intentions and focused on our mission. We packed 23 trunks for the orphans full of supplies, food, tools, clothes, bedding, books and toys, etc.

Here are a few pics from one of our after-work, late-night packings:

Socks and toys for Uganda orphans

Trunks for Uganda orphans

Trunks for Uganda orphans

The trunks get a second life as a “dresser” in which an orphan will keep their belongings (Not much. One of my kids could nearly fill those trunks by themselves).

We got word that the water and electricity is off then on again at the orphanage. You may also have noticed the news that a horrible famine is ravaging Africa right now. People are starving and desperate for food. As the famine increases, more orphans will be dropped off because the families can’t afford to feed them. Please pray for the people the orphanage will touch as well as our team going to minister.

James is on the right (pray for his right shoulder to heal), Chuck is next to him (he’s not feeling well, pray for healing), I’m standing next to Chuck (I’ll take all the prayer I can get), And Jacque is standing next to me (pray also for her). Jacque’s husband worked late that night and didn’t make this pic (pray for Mike), and Cameron (pray for him too) will join us Saturday at the airport. We have a total of six on our team going to Uganda to work in the orphanage.

How to Embarrassingly Prepare Cross-culturally in One Sunday Morning

I stepped out of the restroom into the busy grand foyer of our church auditorium. People were milling around, visiting with their friends and chasing their children into their seats for the service. The place was hopping. I took about twelve steps into the race of people and paused to get a mint from my purse. Earlier, in class, I had a cup of java with friends, and now I’m sure that no one would want to talk with my coffee-breath-self. Besides we have to make our best appearance, and smells matter right?

Appearance: Pretty in Pearls

Speaking of appearances, since I am going to Uganda to disciple orphans at the end of the month, I decided to practice fitting into their culture, beforehand. In Uganda, you must wear long skirts because wearing pants or showing legs makes you a flirt. I should tell you that short dumpy people typically don’t wear long skirts, because they make us look shorter and well . . . dumpier. Nevertheless, I acquired a long skirt and was practicing the use of it this fine Sunday morning.

While standing in our crowded church foyer, two people stopped their trek to meet people and get into the service. One older woman, whom I didn’t know, paused and began to tell me something when the other, a much younger teen, wrapped her arm around me and said into my ear, “Your skirt is caught up.”

Naturally, I leaned forward to look at the yards of material nearly at my feet, not quite understanding what she meant. She quickly jumped behind me and tugged at the overflow behind my knees. That’s when I figured out that I had flashed Uganda’s flirt alert!

Alarming Situation!

Yes, that’s right. I had inadvertently misplaced the trail end of this monstrous bolt of cascading cotton. Apparently, it was tucked somewhere north, near my waist.

All dignity and “best” appearance vaporized. How many of the 300+ people caught my “special” style? Hopefully not many since all of that took place in a short minute or three. Or five?

Since my bff, Kate, pulled at the material from knee level, and since there was enough of it to fold over twice and still cover my shortness, surely I was safely not flashing American Style flirt. Fool maybe, but not flirt. Even when I bent forward, it could only have been embarrassingly un-stylish, right?

This never happens with my regular length skirts. I was way out of my norm even in my own church building. There’s no telling how things will go in Uganda when I’m really out of my culture. Won’t you partner with me in prayer?

We all need to try different things to make connections with people and touch their lives with the hope of Jesus. What part of your culture are you willing to stretch or give up to meet people and make a difference in their lives? For their sakes, are you willing to try and fail, even look foolish?

Please make contributions in the comments and let me know what topics you’d love for me to cover!
