let them see you

In the same way, let your good deeds shine out for all to see, so that everyone will praise your heavenly Father.

This has been a very busy week full of excitement as well as insight.  The mission team working on our new campus has done so much more than I thought possible.  In the days ahead I will share with you pictures, plans and more.

While driving several times this week I heard a song that I want to share with you parts of.  It has spoken to me.  It is Let Them See You by Colton Dixon, and the words from the song are much like the words of the Bible verse above.  It asks that others see Jesus rather than see us. 

As you read these lyrics and then go through this day, may our lives point others to Jesus in every way possible.

Let Them See You

Take away the melodies
take away the songs I sing
take away all the lights
and all the songs you let me write
does the man I am today
say the words you need to say.

Let them see you, in me
let them hear you, when I speak
let them feel you, when I sing
let them see you,
let them see you, in me.

Who am I without your grace
another smile, another face
another breathe, a grain of sand
passing quickly through your hand
Id give my life, I'm not afraid
take it all, take everything…

with every breathe I breathe
I sing a simple melody
but I pray they'll hear more than a song,
In me, in me

Let them see you, in me
let them hear you, when I speak
let them feel you, when I sing
let them see you,
just let them see you, in me
let them see you.

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....
