As many of you know, I posted that i might be considering staying in japan a little while longer. That i might not come back in march, but instead in May.  The reason being is because I have been helping Samaritans Purse rebuilding houses for the Tsunami victims. As i have been help rebuilding, i have been praying over the houses that im helping rebuild and planting seeds. That it will be a new beginning. I have said that my heart is on fire for the Japanese, and now im taking action on what God is doing in my heart. I feel the lord pulling my heart to stay here in Japan just a little longer and finish out the program with Samaritan's Purse to complete all the housing programs here. But most importantly, its because as i was working on a house recently, i had a revelation. Many of you know that all my life, i have worked really really hard. And i feel that God is using that for me to bring his glory to Japan. I feel him telling me that he loves my servant heart and he wants me to show just how much i care and love the japanese by staying here. My flesh just wants to go home but my soul that the lord has set on fire says, stay and finish. I hope you guys can understand me staying. I want to see you guys so badly because i miss you. My plan for now is to stay here in Japan until about the beginning of May and see my brother in California for a little while. It kinda stinks because i was looking forward to celebrating my birthday with him. But i know now that there is nothing like receiving the fruits and revelations from the lord by simply just obeying him.  So keep me in your prayers. Nothing is set in stone yet but im working on it.
