what God has done

Psalm 66:5
Come and see what our God has done, what awesome miracles he performs for people!

I wish you could have walked with our team and about 30 other people down skid row here in Los Angeles last night.  It was like something I had only seen in pictures or on TV.  At any given time there are thousands and thousands of homeless people here.  All for various reasons they have chosen or been put out on the street.

But what struck me most is the boldness of these people who went to serve and pray and share with those who are hurting.  I have seen this over and over this week.  It is powerful.

More stories will come out later about our time here at the Dream Center.  WIFI connection has been slim.  But we have been changed and charged up to do what God has called us to do.  To serve people by sharing His love and telling them that Jesus is the way.  I have seen God move.

Ask God today to move in and around your life.  It is 9/11 and 9 years ago our nation and the world was rocked.  Pray for those touched and make a difference any way you can.  See what God has done!

inspiration from C.S. Lewis

There are many people, past and present, who get our attention by what they write or say or share.  For me C.S. Lewis is one of those.  He was a prolific writer who continues to grab the attention of thinkers from many different points of view. Lewis first grabbed my attention when I was in 5 th grader, and our teacher, Mrs. Foy, shared The Chronicles of Narnia with our class.  It was a powerful time that this dreamer opened doors to thinking like I had never lived before.  He wrote of faith, of far off places and of strong figures who found their character rooted deep in God. C.S. Lewis was born in 1898 and died in 1963, 7 years before I was born.  It wasn’t until his 30’s that under the influence of his friend Tolkien that he came to be a Christian.  He was raised in a traditional church going home, turned away from God as an Atheist in his teen years and through trying to stay away from God and faith returned to God with...
