A MISSION FRAMES EVERY WORD SPOKEN AND EVERY DEED DONE.........I LOVE SEEING THINGS THROUGH THE EYES OF CHRIST. THE DAY ALWAYS STARTS AND ENDS WITH A FULLER HEART OF WHAT THIS EARTH LIFE IS ALL ABOUT. I SEE IT IN THOSE THAT ARE WORKING HARD EACH DAY TO SUSTAIN THEMSELVES, THE CHILDREN THAT DESIRE TO LEARN AND DREAM, THE SMILES THAT COME OUR WAY, THE HARSHNESS OF LIVES THAT STILL KEEP ON GOING, THE WILL AND COURAGE TO MAKE ANOTHER DAY WITHOUT FOOD, THE SOULS THAT HAVE ACCEPTED CHRIST'S LOVE, THE GRACIOUSNESS OF A LAND THAT ALWAYS LEAVES YOU KNOWING THAT WE ARE BEING WATCHED OVER, AND THE STRENGTH OF A NATION THAT CONTINUES TO MAKE A MARK ON MY HEART. IF WE TRULY TRY OUR BEST TO LIVE THE WORDS OF CHRIST, WE WILL BE PREPARED FOR WHATEVER MAY COME OUR WAY DAY BY DAY!
THIS WAS ON THE WALL OF THE HOTEL WE STAYED AT. I KNOW THAT AS WE SERVE ON OUR MISSION THAT HIS PLANS ARE PROSPERING US, AND GIVING US THE DEEP DESIRE AND HOPE TO LIVE WITH HIM AGAIN ONE DAY. IN THIS LAND OF GHANA, YOU NEVER LOOK FAR AND NOT SEE THE HAND OF GOD IN THE LIVES HERE. WHETHER IT BE SIGNAGE ON A BUILDING, A TAXI OR A SHOP, THIS LAND KNOWS OF GOD AND HIS POWER! I'M SO THANKFUL THAT HERE THEY CAN EXPRESSED THIS LOVE WITHOUT ANY CENSORSHIP.
Thank you so much for sharing your walk day by day. There is true beauty in the stillness of walking the path of simplicity of discipleship.
