My dear friends, as I write this to you I sit in the Reed Library of Fort Lewis College. This college took it upon themselves to accomadate this year's CIY conference. I tell you my brothers and sisters it was a long drive here but it was well worth it. I've found out so much about the church's problems in this world. We are persecuted. We are beaten. We are tortured. We lose everything. There is something else though...
We are saved.
And it's for that reason that we speak out. It's for that reason that we continue to pray for the persecution to cease. I know my purpose and in all honesty it didn't change a whole lot. Just the direction of it and the focus of it. I owe my life for His cause. That is exactly what I hope people see in me. If they don't then I pray they will.
Jesus is everything. I am nothing. Absolutely nothing without Jesus. I am here to minister to the southern areas of this world. Where ever that may be. However I can do it I shall do it. Not by my own power but by God's power and grace in me.
This year at CIY I have seen God move in people and I've seen Him move me. This week will be remembered. Not just for the fun times but also for the serious times.
I'll post later with some stuff on "Love Costs Everything".
Grace and peace be with all of you.
I set up this blog as a way to sort through some of the thoughts I have during my walk with Jesus. This is not the work of my own hand but it is all dedicated to God. It all rightfully belongs to Him.
