Passport

So I just got my passport in the mail and I was thinking to myself I'm 26 yrs old and I just got my first passport- how lame! There are many kids who have seen more of the world than me. Thailand will be my first stamp and I hope to add many more after that. Any suggestions? Also looking for words of wisdom from those of you who have traveled afar. Is there anything you suggest I make sure to take with me? Any other tips would be welcomed as well.

Woohoo!

Woohoo! I just found out my plane ticket has been purchased!

Thailand- here we come to share the Gospel cleverly disguised as English teachers- praise God!

Christ Gives Sight and Life

To deny Jesus' message while pursuing spirituality is to conjure an imaginary religion in an attempt to see heaven while sight is confined to the earth. That is precisely what Jesus challenged when He said, "I have come that you may have life" (John 10:10). His life spells living. Your life or my life , apart from Him, spells death. -Ravi Zacharias

Praying for the Return of Christ

Do you ever find yourself praying fervently for the return of Christ because you have just been exposed to a seriously disturbing dose of the depravity of man? While at a training conference for work today I unfortunatly experienced a vivid reminder of man's depravity and perversity. I think the world is so much worse than most people know, it's frightening. God's longsuffering in the midst of such deep and dark sin is at times uncomprehendable to me but I know that He is altogether trustworthy and knows what He is doing. Seeing what I saw today makes me long all the more for Christ to come back and take over His Kingdom. MARANATHA!

America, America God shed His grace on thee...

After reading Schaffer's book How Then Shall We Live and KP Yohanan's book Revolution in World Missions and listening to Vishal Mangalwadi's lectures a few weekends ago I have come to a renewed appreciation and thankfulness for living in America. I never spent much time thinking about our freedom here until recently. The great freedom in this land is because of the Gospel of Jesus Christ and the word of God. Thank you God and Happy 4th of July to all!
