journal (first month in Tokyo)

September 20, 2007 Day 1. On the plane-maybe worse than Russia, but worth it. Nice to be with the team! Still can't believe I didn't cry at the airport-what a blessed morning!

September 22, 2007 ...It's strange how I can't read the remote for the AC and could barely use the shower. We'll get it with some help though...

September 27, 2007 Today was awesome-finally talked to dad...blessed to be with teammates & other Americans. Plus ate no Japanese food today :) Bugs continue to torment. Will work on that.

September 29, 2007 ...Revelation 2 "Do not fear any of those things which you are about to suffer" Also, at the end of Mark, Jesus declares that the followers will drink poison and not even die from that. I'm protected here in Tokyo!

September 30, 2007 ...Great day w/ Chris and Shyla in Shibuya...my little socks I got at the 315 yen store are tight! And I got bugspray & haven't had Japanese food in 3 whole days!

October 1, 2007 I'm tired-it's late-I started learning Japanese & prayed for 4 hrs today.

October 3, 2007 ..."live as though your life is at stake, and the enemy is waiting to outwit you." Matt 10:16

October 8, 2007 Great BBQ & Seahawks game! Gave me victory! Set me free! This minute! I have been set free! Should I do the gospel choir Lord?

October 15, 2007 ...I sang in the choir! That's one thing I never thought I'd do. We'll see...It's so exciting to get emails from students! (Haruna, Keiko, Yuka)...

October 16, 2007 There is freedom w/ the resurrection...

October 17, 2007 Just love.

October 20, 2007 It was a blessed day...I miss football more than I thought I would. This is better, but SC & Bubbs & Misha mean a lot to me!...Remember, one day at a time, pray for your requests, pray & be content
