I've come to the realization that Life with out Jesus would be like chips without salsa...really really boring. Only Life without Jesus is actually a lot worse, since chips are ok by themselves ...and I on the other hand am not, so really its not a good analogy! But at any rate....
So tonight about 18 of us went downtown to just do whatever God wanted to do...so much fun. I say that with MUCH emphasis which is difficult just in type!
I wish I could describe to you that Joy that comes inside of my heart when God meets people and ministers to their hearts. Three of us met this guy June, inside he's been running for a long time. He was catching a bus, he had probably a bag full of drugs..and according to him he also had a big gun. This I don't doubt-however God had some things he wanted to share with him. We got to speak to him for a while and then pray for his foot. He kind of freaked out at one point and wanted us to stand up...we asked him how his foot felt "it's on fire" he says..so we prayed again and its restored. Why? Well, because God loves His kids. June had once been in Seminary, now he's been messed up for a while.
Inside right now I am just so excited that God doesn't give up on us. Man, we can screw up royally..but He's constantly calling for us to come back to Him. Desiring relationship, bringing restoration and healing to our hearts, lives and even physical bodies.
Jesus, thank you that you meet all of us..the June's inside of us that have been running from your heart-trying to make our way on our own. Thank you that you call us to come home and rest in you. To find our identity and purpose in you. Thank you that you don't give up on anyone. It's never to late...
