It's Thursday morning, I am still tired fresh off another great night at oneyouth.
Last night we talked about "give peace a chance" We shared a powerful story of Paul when writing from prison to the church in Philippi. This is a very familiar scripture for those of us who are church junkies, but like many people who read scripture we just kind of read the scripture all alone and take it a face value. However, we took this passage: "don't worry about anything, but pray about everything".
Paul is writing this scripture from a dark, cold, dangerous cell, deep in a roman prison to a church who is growing and thriving in a growing a thriving community. Reading it from this vantage point makes you say " what the...shouldn't things be the other way around.
It doesn't matter what your going through, what just happened to you, who you are, or where you live. God will give you a piece that is bigger than anything you go through.
Thats all for this rainy morning in cloudy Des Moines, IA
Peace.
