I love to write. Intertwined in the fluidity of the keys under my fingers as I put to words and text the things that are swirling within me, the dreams being formed like clay, the moments experienced being captured, and the reflections of a God who is oh so fully Emmanuel "God with us" its my form of art. Some are musicians, some artists... I write... and I like it, so, so much. Even with the evidence of a year, I write in other forms. Tonight, as I was getting ready for bed, I have been reflecting on this January. On a morning commute to work, one of the radio DJ's made a comment about the "87 days of January" which in fact made me laugh and yet this January of 2020 has been one I will not soon forget. Last night, my church and 450+ churches join for a kick off to celebrate the beginning of a 30 day prayer and fasting for our city and each person. Already, so so much has happened... and I'm sure there will be weathers to storm and yet, I am deeply loving the moments where God shows up in an unforeseen way.... and already he has done that three times in two days! This month feels different already. An awakening within me to new levels and depths is already in motion.
For this year... I feel like this year - 2020 is two words:
.....UNSTOPPABLE
and
SOAR.....
.... so much Holy Spirit is teaching me right now... one being with my job and what it looks like to stand under the kind of administration that I have currently - and he told me what that looks like, which I had to exercise today--- through not my lead, it was dramatically so... and then tonight, I watched this video and it was the concepts Holy Spirit was teaching me.
Here's to a spectacular year of writing, hiking adventures with Jesus, laughter and growth lived in community, and adventurously, expectant God things!

Hello Nicole Schulz. I am a Pastor from Mumbai, India.It was good to visit your profile on the blogger once again. It was encouraging to go through your blog post and know that along with your church there are other 450 churches joining beginning of 30 days prayer and fasting for your city and each person. Very needed thing for every city churches in the world to have this kind of prayer and fasting which will bring revival in the christian dome. I will appreciate your prayers for us as leaders in the city of Mumbai to have such prayer and fasting. I did try to contact you twice through your email but no response from you. Since I went through your introductory page where it mentions that you are a social worker having heart for bring missional and having interest in travelling and wanting to be laid down lover of Jesus, I thought you will be excited to respond to the need of less privileged people and children living in the slums of Mumbai and would come to Mumbai to work with us. It is my prayer that you will prayerfully consider to come to Mumbai to work with us durig your vacation time to work with us in the slums of Mumbai to bring healing to the brokenhearted with the love of Christ. Looking forward to hear from you once again . MY email id is: dhwankhede(at)gmail(dot)com and my name is Diwakar Wankhede.
