Dear all,
I hope this email finds you well. It has been almost two months since I last wrote to you.
As you may know, I am involved in the Campus Ministry with Every Nation Church London - reaching and discipling Chinese/Oriental students in Imperial College. I have been involved in the Campus ministry from September 2005 till now. I have loved the student work and the students I have got to know and disciple. However, I have always felt somewhat incomplete.
I have been seeking God for His will for me after my ToYL time with Every Nation ends in Aug 06. An incident happened recently and because of it, I stopped all my ministry-related work and activities, to evaluate where I am at with my ministry and walk with God. God prompted me to dig deep and rediscover the passion He has planted in my heart - the purpose and destiny He has ordained for my life. I am back in ministry and work now, and have begun to know with more assurance and peace as the days passed that my passion is to see people drawn back to God and to be set free to be all that God has intended for them to become. Being in Campus Ministry (working with only students) is not allowing this passion to come alive fully and as a result, I was not thriving and alive fully in my spirit. All these time, although I felt fulfilled in my work with students, I did not feel fully alive. The 'dig deep' process has helped me to make sense of the 'incompleteness' I felt. And this has all evolved from an unpleasant incident! What the devil has meant for bad, God has turned it around and made it for good. Hallelujah! Praise the Lord!
I am scheduled to go to USA for an annual Campus Conference from 24Mar to 29Mar. You may find out more about it from http://www.campusharvest.org
I have a knowing in my spirit that God will make a final confirmation for me in regards to my place and calling in the Campus Ministry.
After the trip to USA, I am going to China for a mission trip. I feel perfect peace about going on this mission trip and have a strong sense of knowing that God will speak to me more about the destiny He has ordained in my life during the trip. Over the past months, God has definitely multiplied my love for the Chinese people. We have just had our first mission meeting. I was so excited and stirred up in my spirit after that that I could not go to sleep that night!
I am filled with anticipation of what God is going to unfold in the months to come. Please remember me in prayers - for me to hear God clearly when He speaks, for good health, strength and divine faith as the following months would be very busy and stretching - physically, mentally, financially and spiritually.
Thank you for praying!
God bless,
Lynn

Dear Lynn
I thank God for your letters of encouragement. By sharing what you are going through, you have encouraged me much. Thank God for giving you an opportunity to go for the convention and mission trip. I believe with you in God that He will reveal His plan for you as to how, where and what He wants you to do. Indeed God appreciates your love and attention for Him more than your service. Continue to devote yourself to Him and I believe you will discover an even more meaningful phase in life that will see the lost saved and fellow believers edified.
