Great surprise! It is always so cool to have a friend drop by unannounced especially one that means so much to you.
Yesterday was a great day as Carey and David Keaton came to Community Worship. The Keatons serve as missionaries in Peru with Missionary Ventures. We have pretty cool history together. Some of their family attended my last church, and David preached for the church after I left while he was in the states. They served in the same town where I worked in Honduras and knew many of the precious people I worked with and loved so much.
We had lunch together as we listened intently to stories, blessings and the like. What a great surprise!
Ever noticed how one of those surprises leaves you excited, encouraged and refreshed? It happens all the time when God is in the mix. The Keatons talked about people who had been saved, doors that God had opened and things that only God could provide. God is at work in Arequipa, Peru and all around the world.
This stuff encourages my socks off and gets me hyped up to be part of what God is doing ...
1 Corinthians 12:6 (nlt) --- God works in different ways, but it is the same God who does the work in all of us .
Philippians 2:13 (nlt) --- For God is working in you, giving you the desire and the power to do what pleases him.
Psalm 68:35 (nlt) --- God is awesome in his sanctuary.The God of Israel gives power and strength to his people.Praise be to God!
1 Peter 1:3 (nlt) --- All praise to God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. It is by his great mercy that we have been born again, because God raised Jesus Christ from the dead. Now we live with great expectation,
Thank you, God, for this great surprise and for the people who get me excited about what you are doing. Keep on God. This is awesome and will let us see you in bigger and bigger ways. Keep the surprises coming! In Jesus' name, Amen.
