Parallels
Our God never changes wherever we go
you know that feeling when you just can't stop smiling? and when you're all warm inside and kind of giddy and just... HAPPY? that's how i'm feeling right now.
i had a "taste of heaven" this weekend in barcelona.
the camp had three different
languages hitting at once -- spanish, filipino, and english. and, man, the Holy Spirit was
truly there, allowing us to communicate, literally using all three languages at
once. we needed translations left and right. but God spoke for us! it was the coolest
thing. all of the kids were filipino (except for my friend that came with me from bilbao
-- she really liked it too) but they all spoke spanish. i just found that so cool whenever
i heard them talking to each other... it's their language... it's just cool to think about
that.
and i was reminded once again how beautiful the
ministry of couples for christ is. we are all just one huge family. i love it. this camp
took me back to memories of how chicago yfc started out... and my life and growth in yfc
all these years. it's been 7 years... but it's all still the same. our God never
changes... He still works just as powerfully every time, He still uses these same old
talks to speak to his people, every time. He still causes people to laugh at the same
traditional YFC jokes, He still touches people through the skits, through the singing of
songs.. our God never changes. youth in the states are in a completely different
"world" as the youth in spain.. but it's just the same... He works just the
same... because in the end, all we are are just brothers and sisters in the same God. el
mismo Dios.
wow... my heart is full, and i know why. it's like
it's too good to be true... why is our God so good to us? and to think... this feeling i'm
feeling is only a "taste!"... dude, i can't imagine what the real thing will be
like... it blows me away.
alright, i'll catch u guys later,
