El Domingo

We're here in Matagalpa. In worship with the people of this city. I can't help but think of the way church should be, the way God's love really works. Living in unity with Christians hundreds of miles away.

Very few of us on the team actually speak Spanish, but love knows no bounds. It speaks beyond language barriers. It speaks directly to the heart and looks past the colors, the accents, the flaws, the differences. It is not "our team" and "them" -- it's us. Rob Bell says in his book "Sex God," that until we start appreciating and honoring creation, we will never be able to appreciate and honor the Creator. Creation directly reflects the Creator!!

We are all children, all human, all deserving or undeserving equally. Same mission, same love, same grace. I pray that God gives me more of His sight; His eyes to see brokenness; to see the hell and darkness around the world. I long to bring heaven and light... in God's name.

Hebrews 10:23-25 - We are called to each other. We are called to lift and edify. Ww are called to live by Truth and preach that, even when it might not be the comfortable or easy thing to do. WE have a God of impossible not practical. Start believing that...

Happy Sunday!
