By Roberta DirgėlaitėAlumna TRANSFORM training 2018 - Serving with Scripture Union Lithuania “Looking back at this summer I still cannot grasp everything God has done in and through me during LLI. There was so much and there is still so much more to come! I am still in a process of unpacking, but I can share one significant thing that I learnt and that has influenced the way I look at my relationship with God. That is learning to be a better disciple by making abiding in Him the foundation of my journey. There have been hardships and there has been JOY in doing this. However, now I am so different from how I was at the beginning of LLI! Now I am rejoicing in His love knowing that seeing the fruit of my works is the part I do not always need to understand. I stand in awe and wonder having no words but praise and worship to my Alpha and Omega! And this poem is my praise to Him!” *** In the depths of the sea of my innermost being I believed in the lies and I followed that pride. You spoke and took away part of my vision With love you pruned for the greater Provision. First, You created man like yourself But his reckless pride sent him right to hell. Nothing but love and love alone Could redeem and restore that heart of stone. Second, You died dressed all in flesh After washing their feet in that garden you wept. My God, my Lord, my Restoration Your cup of death has brought Salvation! In the depths of the sea of my innermost being In the tunnels of mind where the warriors fight You moved mountains and here I am seeing Most glorious might – Lord you dress me in white! Nobody can rob me again Of the robe and the ring and the slaughtered Lamb. I belong in your throne made out of thorns You suffered for me inclining heavenly horns. In the depths of your Mercy and on mountain of Grace To the altar of Moses, I bring offering of Praise. I choose to lay down all of my heart Your Will be done Your Kingdom come Oh Church arise, We are His Bride! *** Today, as I reflect on the transformation that took place in Roberta's life, I am so thankful for all of you who partner with us in prayer and support to make LLI possible. It is when we see the difference God has made in the lives of these young leaders and the campers that come through the DPB House doors that we are reminded about why we are seeking to raise funds so more beds become available. We are continuing to ask God to raise up the funds for the LLI Cabin project so we can gain back beds that were lost under new regulations as we had to remodel the DPB House to meet new codes. Honestly, this journey has not been easy, but your prayers and generous donations have enabled us to get this far and each donation has been such an encouragement. Every matching grant, donation, every prayer in and around the building site has brought us together with a focus to God alone be the glory in and through Jesus’ ministry at the DPB House Camp and Training Center. Together, we press on in this vision to see a facility completed so others may meet with their God away from the noises of life in a place where they may rest and grow. Would you consider joining us in providing funding to finish the LLI Cabin so even more young men and women will have the opportunity to grow in Christian character, commitment to God’s call on their lives and competency to be servant leaders in a world in need?
Thank you for considering joining us in expanding ministry so more young leaders may be trained throughout the year. Grace and Peace, Steve Meeker Director LLI
