Back with stories to tell

We are back from Thailand and God has multiplied our passion to include the 24 people that went on this trip. A friend of mine asked me if I was ruined and if we ruined our students as a result of the trip. He meant this in a good way. My answer is, I think He did. When you experience and share in the despair and pain of others at such a deep level and see so clearly that hope is found only in Christ it ruins your ability to be easily distracted from seeking the God solution. The Holy Spirit plants a passion in your heart to be his hands and feet and you are compelled to move out. It was clear as day again on this trip that Christ is the solution.
It is late and I need to try to get some sleep. Our body clock is still operating some place between Asia and the United States. For the next few posts I will share stories and character descriptions from the trip. I think that making the trip personal will allow you to share more deeply in our experience. Maybe God will call you to respond.
Please continue to pray as our team transitions back into our culture and processes all that God did. Pray for our amazing students that are moving out in a courageous way for Christ. Pray for the students at Grace Ministries that are doing the same. We are also praying about how God would call us to respond now that we are back in the states. Thank you all for the tremendous support. More to come.
