On our way to LA

This was at the end of an email from Bernice at The LA Dream Center as we prepared for our trip. Ahead of us are some exciting things, learning times and people we will get to serve. As I said yesterday I've waited for this day for a long time. We are in the air now. I'm praying for our time there in LA. And I pray, "God, fill us. Inspire us. Let us overflow on to and encourage people who don't know you and those who do. Thank you for this opportunity. In Jesus' name, Amen"

Also, I'm looking forward to meeting Matthew Barnett. Look for a picture. I'll be the one wearing the OU shirt. He will be the one trying to convince us that God's team is USC. Not gonna happen.

Did you know that the Cowboys and Redskins play this weekend. We are pulling for Dallas. Might be a long weekend.

Good bye for now. Take another look at the picture. We are headed to a place being powerfully used by God.

Have you heard of EDITH BURNS?

Edith Burns was a wonderful Christian who lived in San Antonio, Texas . She was the patient of a doctor by the name of Will Phillips. Dr. Phillips was a gentle doctor who saw patients as people. His favorite patient was Edith Burns.  One morning he went to his office with a heavy heart and it was because of Edith Burns.  When he walked into that waiting room, there sat Edith with her big black Bible in her lap earnestly talking to a young mother sitting beside her.  Edith Burns had a habit of introducing herself in this way: "Hello, my name is Edith Burns.  Do you believe in Easter?" Then she would explain the meaning of Easter, and many times people would be saved.  Dr. Phillips walked into that office and there he saw the head nurse, Beverly. Beverly had first met Edith when she was taking her blood pressure. Edith began by saying,"My name is Edith Burns. Do you believe in Easter?"  Beverly said, "Why yes I do."  Edith said, "Well, what do you ...

wash feet, sharing hope

  John 13:4-5,14 NLT  So he got up from the table, took off his robe, wrapped a towel around his waist, 5 and poured water into a basin. Then he began to wash the disciples’ feet, drying them with the towel he had around him… 14 And since I, your Lord and Teacher, have washed your feet, you ought to wash each other’s feet. Jesus set the example we follow.  He served.  He valued and gave value to others.  That is why we choose to serve. For 18 years our church has shared an outreach called back2school, and for 16 of those years we have chosen to give students brand new shoes and socks as well as washing their feet.  It is one of the most important parts of this event. Washing feet is a humbling experience where both the give and the receiver learn how to share some moments that might change their lives.  Jesus said we should do this.  See the verse above.  Follow His example, do what He did, and give far more than you will ever know....
