Who let school out? Who said these kids could be home BORED and HUNGRY every hour of the day and it isn't even June yet! This has been a week of simply trying to get everyone where the need to go, on time, fed and relatively happy to be there. Glad we are appraoching the end of it and praying that next week we'll get settled into a routine.
Pentecost is just around the corner. One of the best days of worship in the church in my opinion. Especially when we can get folks that speak in other languages to read the story. It is my turn to preach and I will be sharing about a "movement" that has begun in Texas called "I Am Second" and you can find it at http://www.iamsecond.com/ I Am Second exists to lift the name of Jesus Christ up before the world and to encourage us to put Christ first and ourselves second in the priority list of our life. You will find videos from people all across the spectrum...some celebrities, some heavy metal musicians, athletes and regular people who share their story and put Christ first.
I just encourage you to spend a little time on the website and watch a few stories...they will inspire you and speak to the Christ in your own heart.
And on Pentecost let us remember that :
Christ Has No Body
Christ has no body but yours,
No hands, no feet on earth but yours,
Yours are the eyes with which he looksCompassion on this world,
Yours are the feet with which he walks to do good,
Yours are the hands, with which he blesses all the world.
Yours are the hands, yours are the feet,
Yours are the eyes, you are his body.
Christ has no body now but yours,
No hands, no feet on earth but yours,
Yours are the eyes with which he lookscompassion on this world.
Christ has no body now on earth but yours.
Teresa of Avila (1515–1582)
