Today, 13 missionaries from YWAM (Youth With A Mission), a Christian missions organization, joined some of us in morning prayer. Let us pray for their ministry here and seek to pursue God with the same kind of obedience. As I feel immensely encouraged by their presence today, here is a bible passage that embodies the principle behind the mutual encouragement that occurs within the body of Christ:
"As a prisoner for the Lord, then, I urge you to live a life worthy of the calling you have received. Be completely humble and gentle; be patient, bearing with one another in love. Make every effort to keep the unity of the Spirit through the bond of peace. There is one body and one Spirit--just as you were called to one hope when you were called--one Lord, one faith, one baptism; one God and Father of all, who is over all and through all in all." -Ephesians 4:1-5
Praise God! Like John the Baptist and Abraham, we are called to be witnesses of God who by passionate love pursues us, and to partake in a mission greater than we can now fathom.
