Go …2…
In 1988, 37 years ago, my oldest son and his best friend went on an adventure of a lifetime…they went on their first short term mission trip…they were slated for Bethlehem, but it was switched to Australia due to the unrest in Israel at the time…
They made it through the swampy boot camp in Florida, chopped down trees , built a huge barn, visited the nearly people, saw and listened to the kookaburra, lived “down under” , shared and lived the gospel…they came back changed young men…sharing their experiences with others down through the years…later siblings also followed similar paths or did adventures as well…paths directed by God for their individual lives…
Last night, we had a prayer and dedication for some teens going on their first adventure as well as others leading, volunteering…friends, family gathering to send off workers, leaders, camp staff to that same swampy Florida camp…to work together creating teams to serve others…to share the gospel… to be changed to follow their call in life…
As I read Isaiah 6 this morning…” Holy, Holy, Holy is the LORD Almighty…the whole earth is full of His Glory …the doorposts and the thresholds shook and the temple was filled with smoke…
Here am I, send me”…
What an awesome wonder…God is as awesome today with these teens as he was with Isaiah hundreds of years ago…or 37 years ago or last year…His message of redemption today is just as important to people around the world as it was then…
Thank YOU…
Go light your World…
