Have you ever run into a situation where you didn’t know how to pray? I saw a rat creep out from under my couch and walk across my living room floor. A RAT. Here I was praying against bugs and mice… Rats weren’t even on my fear radar.
…on the back of the bike of life, I control very little. Will I spend the miles God gives me peering over his shoulder, scanning for danger, and shrieking “Be careful!”…Or will I slowly, purposefully, turn my head and take in the beauty?
“Therefore my dear brothers and sisters, stand firm. Let nothing move you. Always give yourselves fully to the work of the Lord, because you know your labor is not in vain.” 1 Corinthians 15:58
Last summer I traveled with a group from our church to Addas Ababa, Ethiopia. My daily life here is nothing special. In fact, I live with quite a bit of mental and emotional mess. I have limited abilities and have no history of longing to reach the nations or to minister to orphans. Why would anyone in my ordinary life situation even apply to be part of something like this mission trip?
Youth Camp- We are SO thankful for the younger generations growing up in this church and for the ways God is moving and working in their lives.
