Day 159 - great day.
Spent 3 hours with two guys from Kansas talking church transformation. Hopefully they learned some new stuff, I know I did.
Then ......spent nearly four hours with Jake from Guatemala. Neat.
We ate, we laughed, we nearly cried (hey we are men, we 'nearly' cried), we dreamed, we strategized and at the end we knew that God had showed up and something new, bigger is being birthed.
Life with the Holy Spirit is so unpredictable.
There are always the constants of everything pointing to Christ, God being glorified, the Kingdom of God being expanded. But within that there is the unpredictable.
Who would have thought I'd every be in Reedley. Who'd have thought I'd still be here!
Jake certainly never imagined he'd be in Guatemala with a wife and two kids!
But both of us, all of us, are trying to do life with God and for God.
That life is unpredictable.
Maybe this is why Scripture is always emphasising faith.
Unpredictability can only be lived in and through faith.
Maybe this is why Scripture says anything not of faith is sin!
Maybe living predictable lives is sinful.
It's certainly boring.
Today wasn't a boring day!
