Thankful Weekend
What a weekend! I wonder how many of you feel the same way (though of course, for different reasons).
My family and I went to a Christian retreat over the weekend called Passion for God Conference (www.passionforgod.org.uk) where we had a really wonderful time. God seemed to be doing amazing things and we are grateful for the contacts and friendships made even in that short time. There were a few people who seemed genuinely interested in the ministry of the ships (i.e. Doulos, Logos Hope, etc) and a few specifically interested in my dad and I guess our family's ministry. It was truly exciting to see people really hungry for God and His word. I hope we'll be able to stay in touch with a few of them and perhaps get some more feedback. Isn't it amazing what God can do even in just a few days... in a few hours... in a few moments?
I was challenged myself to live more fully for Christ. How many countless opportunities have I missed? How far away from Christ's standard am I... It must be several trips to the moon and back if not around the entire solar system more than a couple times. Praise the Lord for His mercies new every morning and for His sufficient Grace!
Well, I'm going to go now...to find out how God is related to my homework. *grin*
In ALL things give thanks!
