My cup runneth over

By God's glory, this week I have finally felt like I am where I'm supposed to be. I feel like i've found my place here! We had our first meeting for the Center for Global Justice on friday and it's so exciting to hear what the Lord is doing. Last semester, the dean of our law school got to meet with the President of Mexico to talk about how the Center can partner with their government and offer support. At the same time, eight countries in Africa have contacted Regent to help them establish model law schools in Africa. These are such wonderful opportunities because these countries are war torn and downtrodden and one day a new generation of youth will be able to establish justice in their own countries through the rule of law. Jesus calls us to fight for the oppressed and to speak up for those that cannot speak for themselves! God is allowing the Center for Global Justice to be apart of the work that He is doing around the world to provide justice for the hurting. One story is of an African woman who was trafficked from Africa to Russia and randomly contacted Regent to find out where she could receive help in Russia. Because of the Center, the woman was put in contact with an organization that helps trafficked women. For circumstances such as this, I will be working with he Center to research non-profit organizations who hold the same values as the Center in order to build a collaborative network. It is evident that God is doing great things, because Satan is also at work. Several of our team members are facing difficult and unexpected circumstances, but that will not stop us. We know that God is in control of all things and we are joining together in prayer both for our friends and for the work that He is going to do through the Center. Please keep the center my friends in your prayers as they face very difficult circumstances. For such a time is this!
