If you are over 21 (or about to be), and are looking for a way to stretch your faith and expand your world, you may want to take a look at this.
This weekend the Servants 4 Him team got to spend some time with Team Pneuma of the World Race. This is a group of 7 people who are on an adventure traveling to 11 countries in 11 months. They raise their own money, live out of a backpack, survive on a limited budget and serve missionaries and ministries throughout the world. They are living and serving in community together and Guatemala is their first of 11 stops.
As we shared an afternoon together I was reminded
-of the importance of community,
-that the Kingdom of God continues to expand,
-that God calls us to do things that are way outside of our comfort zones,
-and although all of our stories are different, God is right smack in the center of all of them.
Today, I’m thankful for a glimpse into the lives of 7 people that God is simultaneously molding and using. I know there is hope for all of us who need a little more molding and are willing to be used.
“And I am certain that God, who began the good work within you (and me), will continue his work until it is finally finished on the day when Christ Jesus returns.” Philippians 1:6
