It’s a sad story and one where satan’s attacks are all to evident. The attempt to destroy and tear down is hard to hear, harder to watch.

I’m thankful for the opportunity to sit in an office for an employer where people can walk in, sit down, pour out their hearts and I can often get them help that they need in some form. Ministry happens in all sorts of places and I thank God for using me in unusual circumstances to be a part of his kingdom.

Grace and peace to you.

Ministry is using our gifts & resources to serve others. There is real joy in serving something bigger than our own agenda. -Lecrae Moorevar gaJsHost = ((“https:” == document.location.protocol) ? “https://ssl.” : “http://www.”); document.write(unescape(“%3Cscript src='” + gaJsHost + “google-analytics.com/ga.js’ type=’text/javascript’%3E%3C/script%3E”)); try { var pageTracker = _gat._getTracker(“UA-12356560-1”); pageTracker._trackPageview(); } catch(err) {}

I had the opportunity to minister to some folks I don’t normally come in contact with on Sunday and I thank God for brothers who challenge me to step outside myself and my agenda.

Our church set a goal of $100,000 for a special contribution going to our missions work on October 9. It’s a crazy amount of money and I don’t know if we can reach it or not. I do know God wants to use us to do unbelievable things. Maybe $100k is a part of his plan, maybe not. Either way, whatever we raise will be for his glory, not ours. If we raise $25,000, it’s for him. If we raise $101,000, it’s for him. I hope no one will feel let down if we don’t hit the number or feel pumped about ourselves if we do reach the goal. It’s a man-made number and maybe God has different plans for us. Maybe his plans are going to be something bigger than we will ever dream of on our own. Who knows? I do know we will never know if we don’t put our trust in him and allow him to use us as he knows best.

Grace and peace to you.
