Anthony and I were part of Disciple Now this weekend. We had 12 teenage girls in our house and our own two little princesses LOVED IT! We kept up as much as we could and sometimes failed miserably but we had fun none the less. Our dear dear dear friend Curtis was here with the band he performs in from time to time and it was great to watch him help lead worship. The joy in his face when he sings always touches my heart. Our special speaker was Wes Springer,, he was at one time the drummer for a Christian band called Thalon. They all went their separate ways but since then he has become a public speaker and he was just awesome. He shared a little bit about what his brother has been called to do and that is helping young girls get off the streets of Honduras after they have been made sex slaves in horrible human sex trafficking. This of course touches my heart because I have two sweet little girls of my own and some of the former slaves aren't much older than my Belle. You can find out more by going to the link www.shedances.org. Take a look and see how you can help.
Anyway, the words that I learned this weekend, or the phrase really, was this, "because God created us for relationship and we have been made "Little Jesus'" when we accepted him as our Saviour every where we go is holy ground. There is no place that we can go that we choose to bring God with us. He is there all the time, our job is to make people aware that God is already there." Kind of makes you look at things differently huh? Amazing weekend. Let me tell you, if you haven't worshiped in a while and you feel like you just need to "meet God" please volunteer at your church's next youth rally. You will be glad you did.
