I have the opportunity to be part of the planning team for the liturgical service on campus this year which has been such a blessing. I have been blessed by the prayer, the singing, the diving into the living breathing word of God, and the people that surrounded me last week. We held hands and they asked the Lord to go before me during my time in LA and I remembered that the church is a beautiful thing. She is a dancing, laughing, shimmering thing that loves fiercely, and calls to the downtrodden and the left behind, and those just trying to get it right.
"Be energetic in your life of salvation, reverent and sensitive before God. That energy is God's energy, an energy deep within you, God himself willing and working at what will give him the most pleasure. Do everything readily and cheerfully- no bickering, no second-guessing allowed! Go out into the world uncorrupted, a breath of fresh air in this squalid and polluted society. Provide people with a glimpse of good living and of the living God."
Philippians 2:13-15
Listen to this.
