HYDERABAD // DAY TWO

Second night in Hyderabad, there's a real sense that God is doing something amazing in the country!

We got a bit of a lie-in and soundchecked after lunch. It was even hotter today, about 45c in the shade. Stuff in my guitar case was starting to melt! Crazy heat. It's been such fun spending time with Hillsong London team - they've got such a passion for worship and encouraging the church - very cool to see.

This evening was even bigger than last night, they reckoned it must have been over 10,000, and the place was pretty rammed. Right after we'd led, we had to dash for the airport to catch the overnight flight to Singapore, then connected up to KL. My first time in Malaysia, very cool place. Monday we got some rest and hung out with the local Alpha/Worship Central team here.

It's been a privilege to see what God is doing in India. You get a real sense of excitement and buzz just hanging around people here. Something is happening! It's amazing to see how God is building his church across Asia. The Holy Spirit is all over the place here, we keep meeting young people with incredible stories of how God has changed their lives. Again and again people have spoken about their desire to encourage authentic worship in their local churches... it's so exciting to see a generation passionate about knowing Jesus.

I've been thinking all day about that proverb: "Above all else, guard your heart, for everything you do flows from it." Worship is a heart condition: it's great spending time with people who have caught that heart!
