you've just been poked.

For Christians, true teamwork is not about defeating opponents; it’s about recruiting them to join our team (1 Cor. 9:19-22).

Lord, too often I view as my enemies those who don’t know You. Help me love them as You love them. Help me gently share Your truth with them. Help me see them as part of Your great mission field. Amen.

it seems easy at first trying to be friends with those who do not know Christ.
as i drew myself closer to them, i saw the "true colors" in them.
they're rude in speech and action.
and the words they've spoken pierced into my heart.
the next thing i knew i was drawing myself out from their presence...
i gave up.

and the prayer above really spoke to me...
so yeah, less of me, more of Him...



oh yeah...some old pics
