Glorious Beautiful Mystery

This past 11 months in Cambodia has been a lot of preparation, prayer, and waiting.
I have felt so much direction from the Lord to dig in, build foundations, make good connections, focus on learning the Khmer language, bond with the city, dream and strategize for what will be most effective, helpful, and specific to me for the mental health community here.

With that, here are some prayer points to come alongside and see these dreams through.

• Learning Khmer will come quicker than expected
  
• Push back any of the enemy's attempts to slow learning Khmer or bonding with Cambodians
• Moving back, I've been more isolated in my work and had less opportunity to hang out with Cambodians on a regular basis. Some of this has been good for the season the Lord is calling me to (to create workshops, healthy rhythms, Oasis, prayer) and some of this has been hard for learning Khmer and deepening Cambodian relationships.
• Wisdom for how I spend my time
• Bring Special Connections
• for partnering in counseling work
• for practicing Khmer
• for translating counseling jargon
• for being more strategic with culturally relevant material
• and more
  
• Prepare a future young translator 
• dreaming for someone who grew up bilingual, is curious about counseling, has time to give, and doesn't need a super high wage to start (therefore, a young person ;)
  
• Prepare a future office
• Either rental space one or two days a week
• Or a full time office space
  
• Future Furniture 
• For office space
• For hosting in my apartment

For Cambodia as a whole

• Prepare hearts
• for the Lord
• for transformation
• with curiosity
• for leadership
  
• Give Dreams and Visions
• Awaken the Cambodian Bride
• Awaken more people to love the Holy Spirit
• Deepen Hunger and Thirst
• for righteousness
• for more
• for faith to grow
• for broken chains and freedom to hope
  
• Supernatural growth and transformation in Cambodians
• God appointing leaders and bringing excitement to hearts for all that God wants to do.
