"The greatest cause in the world is joyfully rescuing people from hell, meeting their earthly needs, making them glad in God, and doing it with a kind, serious pleasure that makes Christ look like the Treasure He is".
Hello everyone. If I may, let me ask you guys to read that quote again, and to spend some time pondering what it really means, and what our lives would look like if we lived in that manner.
My apologies to those of you who check this blog daily as the needs and details of our missions conference next week have gotten the best of my time as of late. I do want to encourage all of you to register if you haven't yet, and to tell others about this opportunity to come and hear about what the Lord is doing around the world, and what still remains to be done. I am also asking that you would bathe this conference in prayer. Pray that the Lord would gloriously lift up His Son Jesus, and His Great Commision - that peoples would know Him, and glorify Him, and live for Him with all that they have. Pray that this conference would also be a day where the Lord calls those that He has chosen to take this cause to peoples who haven't heard, and maybe to those who don't want to hear, and those who don't even want you in their countries. I'm praying that on this day we would count the cost together, and in the light of His glory, corporately acknowledge Him as our all sufficiency, and our Treasure. Please join with me this next week asking the Lord to do awesome things here at Calvary Philly on Saturday, May 17th.
