Boy, am i tired?

I have been sitting and listening and processing in small groups since morning till about 5pm when we had dinner and moved straight into Community worship at 6pm at the OHANA Court.

The good and bad news is that my plans for the weekend also flew out of the window! The Impact World International leadership team is having a meeting over this weekend and Mark announced today that those of us who are national leaders also need to sit in. I'm not going to be spiritual about saying it's cool, actually it's sort of sore.

I had a plan to see more of the Island, seeing my weekends are limited, so i had to reschedule. The good thing though is that i am not forced to attend, i could fling it, but i thought...i'm actually here primarily for the seminar, and it felt alot better to put my plans on hold.

So as you can see, i am not very inspired at the moment and i am not saying anything useful to you, but if you care enough you would share in my misery right? for good times and bad times, so stick with my pathetic rambling for a while.

My eye sockets are about to crack due to weight of tiredness, tomorrow is going to be another long day and i hope i do not feel as exhausted as i am tonight.

I promise to tell you something nicer than this tomorrow! I guess i better shut up now, else i'm going to repeat myself again by saying ....OK, that's it for now. Cheers!

Now this is nothing profound, but i officially award myself the title of "Spontaneous Street Dancer of the century!"

In 2005, I danced samba in the streets of Rio de Janero, Brazil

In 2006, I danced Tango on the streets of Buenos Aires, Argentina

and today, i danced the Hula on the streets of Kailua-kona, Hawaii.

I was returning from a walk to the Pier where the Island Breeze perform the Lua'u and Hawaiian Protocol at the Sea-side hotel. I heard some music and crowd so i decided to go check it out. There was this professional dancer and a guy playing guitar on the street for money. She invited a few of us to take an instantaneous crash course and perform with her. I jumped in and danced a full song with her, it was such a great exotic feeling to dance freely.

I had some really spiritual thoughts i wanted to share with you this evening, but this being the dominant feeling in me at the point of writing has supressed any other reflection from emerging.

I will have to try to share something qualitative - So on a more meaningful note, this week has been very spiritual for me. My spirit is receiving some awakening in deep and hidden places. Tomorrow we will be having a combined session with the International Leadership Team of Impact World Tour, a lot of the guys are flying in for their annual meeting, we are expecting the power of the Holyspirit to show up in a very profound way as we plan to spend some mega time in prayer. Will let you know what transpires.

Mark came in for the usual 9am start of lecture, we had just finished our house church...he felt we needed to go into some intercession, he only laid a very loose structure and challenged us to pray for the nations of the world that we were representing.

Now this is not some micky mouse prayer that we always do, throwing out some random wishes out there, that we do not even remember 2 hours after a prayer meeting. Our class is full of people who are ready to go and take their nations for God through a mighty wave of salvation, so it was quite strategic. It was really deep for me, and God challenged me on many levels. I feel that some things are really happening in my life in the spirit, which i cannot even put words to at the moment.

At lunch, guess who i ran into? Martijn (from Belgium) and his wife and baby. I sat with them for lunch and caught up on their lives.

I came up to my room and dozed off! I totally forgot that i had a national leaders meeting with Mark others. But some how i do not regret the sleep, did me good :-)

After dinner, we had another 2 hour session, it was lively and fun. But boy, i was asking myself " what have you signed up for? " there is just too much work and detail and strategy that goes into plannning campaigns and i have to take time out and find out what all of that means for me.

If you have a minute, would just spend a few minutes in prayer for atleast some one you want to see get saved? We are called to reach all, and i like the way Mark has coined it, Call2All. Chat soon!
