Day 18- "Be Specific"

In the past couple of days we have had dinner by candle light because the electricity has turned off. It stays off for two hours or so. We have rice and dal with EVERY meal, unless you can get away for lunch to grab some pizza or momos. The guys claim only rice can make them full. Relationships with the guys in the house are taking off, and we've made some friends at the local coffee shop. People seem to recognize you easily here, especially when they think you're so white you can glow in the dark!
Since being here I have already learned a lot. Things like lukefourteen 12-33  ring true. I am learning to solely rely on Him. It's a different way of relying on Him than I ever have before. Also, how to talk to Father. I thank everyone who does on my behalf and intercedes for me, but be specific. Asking for things as "being with me" are pointless, because He already is, or "to keep me safe" because that is not what He has called us to. Ask for opposition to be tore down. he takes jabs at us at every turn and with people here inviting evil spirits to live within them, it's a very dark place. For open doors. Yarp strongly against opposition, because it has a strong grip here, and that the HS can change lives... Again, be specific.
I love and miss everyone back home. I have already planned to consume an unhealthy amount of cheddar burgers and cajun chicken pasta at Chili's the evening I return home. Until then, rice and dal, pizza, momos, repeat.
