Monday, August 2nd
Yesterday was our first free day of the trip and was meant to be relaxing preparing us for the rest of our trip. We started off by going shopping at a few different shops. The ladies were having a great time where as the men learned a new spelling for the word boring a.k.a. s-h-o-p-p-i-n-g haha. As for me personally, I was very happy that we got to go shopping and I was able to get a few gifts for my family and friends… and maybe a few things for myself :p
After the shopping trip we made our way to a giraffe center which was a lot of fun. Not only did a get to see multiple giraffes up close, but I actually got to kiss a giraffe… oh yeah you heard me right, I KISSED a giraffe. I have to admit that it was quite the experience and I would do it again if I had the chance.
After our short stay at the giraffe center, we made our way to the Hyodo’s residence. To have a relaxing evening, dinner, and we got to hear Mike’s testimony. I have to say that dinner was great, but I was so excited to listen to Mike tell his testimony. After spending the past week or so with Mike at various ministries, I can see that he is truly a man of God. When I hear the way that he speaks of the Lord and his heart for people, I can see his closeness and anointment from God. Mike’s testimony was amazing to hear and it definitely moved me and touched my heart. Mike is one of those people I look up to and only hope I can aspire to be like him one day. I know that all the glory goes to God for shaping Mike into the man he is today and I am glad to see God working through him in so many ways.
Though this was a free day and we didn’t go out to minister, I truly found blessing in our day off.
