ENCOURAGE - EQUIP - EMPOWER
IT STARTS HERE.
In 2003, as my youngest was off to college and I was heading into the empty nest stage of life, I was presented with the opportunity to go on a missionary trip to Jamaica. Upon my return, I was left with lots of questions. What did we really accomplish? What difference did we make? Was the impact of our work just a temporary fix, or would there be a longer lasting impact?
The setting was perfect. It was a lovely cool summer evening. The yard was beautifully landscaped, and all of the details had fallen into place. At the end of the wedding ceremony, the bride sat in a chair, lifted up the edge of that beautiful gown, and her groom began to wash her feet. It felt incredibly intimate and in a way I felt I had no right to witness it. This couple understood that God doesn’t just want us to act like a servant from time to time. God wants us to BE a servant all the time both in our deeds and in our hearts.
