Greetings fellow traveler!
I just spent the last week hoping from FOB to FOB via "Huey Express"
So many thoughts tonight as I close out another week in theater...I have held 7 services in the last 4 days, on three different FOBs, each one grateful and hungry for worship, prayers, fellowship and the presence of the Holy in the midst of the Horrors of war....as I reflect on this ministry..so many things come to mind...there is a song by Jason Gray I think, that I would sing for you, but because I havent figured out how to attach videos yet, I will just share the words that describe my sense of the Holy today...
Give me rules
I will break them
Give me lines
I will cross them
I need more than a truth to believe
I need a truth that lives, moves, and breathes
To sweep me off my feet
It ought to be
More like falling in love
Than something to believe in
More like losing my heart
Than giving my allegiance
Caught up, called out
Come take a look at me now
It's like I'm falling, oh
It's like I'm falling in love
Give me words
I'll misuse them
Obligations
I'll misplace them
'Cause all religion ever made of me
Was just a sinner with a stone tied to my feet
It never set me free
It's gotta be
More like falling in love
Than something to believe in
More like losing my heart
Than giving my allegiance
Caught up, called out
Come take a look at me now
It's like I'm falling, oh
It's like I'm falling in love
...It's like I'm falling in love, love, love
Deeper and deeper
It was love that made
Me a believer
In more than a name, a faith, a creed
Falling in love with Jesus brought the change in me
Most services, messages and opportunities to
minister would do well to answer the heart
cry behind this song, when they attempt to speak
on behalf of God..
We all would be better for it....
The one thing Jesus said was greater than anything else:
LOVE!
The Love of God to man, "nothing can separate us from the Love of God"
the love of man to man, "by your love one towards another"
the love of man to God "Love the Lord your God with all your heart...."
So in the spirit that this is written
I love you all
T
