From my reading this morning out of the book Radical:
Our great need is to fall before an almighty Father day and night and to plead for him to show his radical power in and through us, enabling us to accomplish for his glory what we could never imagine in our own strength. And when we do this, we will discover that we were created for a purpose much greater than ourselves, the kind of purpose that can only be accomplished in the power of his Spirit.
Church this morning was amazing! We sometime, well pretty much all the time, take for granted what we have in America. The church I went to this morning was in a tent. A stick framed hut, with tarps over it. And they still praised and worshipped God. Unlike us, when we can sometimes not go to church just because of typical nonsense stuff. Did I mention it was super hot in there.
Then we went to church tonight at Mano's church. That was an amazing expierence. His church was actually in a building. But the power in Haiti only comes on at a certain time. So it was very hot and dark in the church. All the light we had was two oil lamps. Even with those conditions, people still praised and worshipped God. It really makes you realize what it truly takes to praise God. Not a building, not stained glass windows, or even electiricity! Just a group of believers gathering for one sole purpose, to praise God! Thank you Lord for showing me this today.
