I received a response to the last post via email and thought I'd include it in this post... Here it goes.

Wow. Beautiful... Those people in their huts... that could be a huge part of why someone/something did not want u to connect with Jesus. I think this is really powerful. Questions... What does it mean that they are in this city? and what does it mean to be in the city Jesus takes "YOU" to so often? What is this "branch clearing" ministry ur doin? I'm not asking u to analyze more than Jesus wants u to.. or at all if He doesn't want u to... But there is some neat stuff there that someone with an overactive imagination like myself might get carried away with :-)

Hey Jesus I got these questions and I think they are great... and delightful cause it will only lead me into You. Hehehe... I remember asking who these people are... will You give me anymore? Interesting as I reflect back it was one man in particular that I pictured in his hut over a pitifully little fire trying to warm and get light from ... hmmm. He was lonely. I just knew the other ones were there... is this significant? Will You show me only one person at a time? And not necessarily who they are but who I am to be filled with love and light for? Interesting even more then that You showed me (in a way) that there was a literal village of them... hmmm. I never interacted with them did I... directly I mean... while they were unaware I ministered with You. The branch clearing seemed like quite an obvious thing to do. They want light... they want You... but they are unable. So we thus started by trimming a bit at a time to allow a little more light in... to let more of You in. You walked among them, while they slept and sang and whispered to their hearts and souls. Likewise this is also when we worked... yup that is just like You again. While we are always so unable, You provide and work and allow us to step into You ... all we are left with is to decide and turn.. You take care of everything else... Yup, that is you. And even when we turn but are still unable to love You back... You wait and work and love; providing all things necessary for the next step.. In fact you are delighted even with this seemingly and such small step. Wow. You really are cool.
