Today ended amazingly but was a bit heavy. We had lunch at this Katzu restraurant and then headed to Sensijo Temple ( I think that's what it's called). I have never seen idol worship before and it was just very burdening and dark. I was feeling heavy for about 3 hours after that because the sites are like you have never imagined. Millions of people praying and bowing to false idols, rubbing Buddha and patting themselves with smoke. It's the craziest thing. All of these people are so lost. I kept thinking about the scripture Revelation 7:8-10.
After that we had Starbucks and then got back on the train and went to a huge park. We sang at the park for about an hour. I think we had a pretty good response. It's so difficult singing outside because of the wind and smoke blowing all around. We're singing in the park for a while longer tomorrow and after each set we intend on handing out tracts and talking to people. Please PRAY that God open's peoples hearts to our music and ministry and that we can begin to develop friendships with these people.
Tonight was another night that ended with a dinner at Mcdonalds. We've spent so much money thus far on food that we needed to go cheap tonight. Everything is very expensive out here! We did, however, get to walk along the street for a while and do some shopping.
I am having a great time. I go through highs and lows but I think that's just adjusting and also Satan trying to pull me down and discourage me.
Tokyo is an INCREDIBLE place, but I do miss home. Love you! Please continue to pray for our team! Thanks!!
