I love Koreans

I love Koreans. Today we had a whole lot of Koreans join us for breakfast. They came over from Seoul on a specific mission to pray for the city of Boston, to intercede, asking God to break the spiritual darkness this city is in. We ate our breakfast and went right into passionate worship as a community of Christ-lovers, then into prayer. Tomorrow they are going to Woodstock to have a time a worship of 24 hours straight. Why? 40 years ago was when the "rock-fest" at Woodstock was held. Free sex, drugs, and rock n' roll, all over the place. From then on, our nation has really down spiraled, leaving us at 1.5 million abortions a year. I could definitely go on with statistics of how this country is walking into Satan's hands, but that is not what I wanna focus on. I wanna focus on that since living in Boston, I have met, seen, and heard about countless groups of foreigners who constantly pray for this nation, and even come here as missionaries to reach out to people searching for truth. These Koreans are heading to Woodstock to break spiritual barriers and basically curb-stomp Satan. Heck ya! Praise Jesus! In the last 2 weeks we have had 5 visitors, either YWAMers, or pastors, church/ministry leaders come to us and say that God has put a burden on their Heart for this city, and that He is gonna be doing something big here. A revival in the City of Boston. How cool would that be?! One of the most cultural, educational, artistic cities on the is heading to revival. I pray that happens. Heck, I hope you do too. But not only for Boston, but for where you live too. I'm just biased cause I live here! Haha. Here's the thing though. Nothing happens if you don't do anything, if you just continue to go through the motions of life that our government/media/world tells us you have to. Live what Paul writes in Romans 12:2: Do not conform any long to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind!!!! Amen! Do it. Don't just read it, think about it, then forget it. Tell someone daily about the love that rescued you from darkness and brought you into His Marvelous Light. Ha. I love Koreans!

Fall

I love the fall. I love the coolness of the air, I love the beautiful nature that God has put around me and I love the feeling of winter sitting on the doorstep. As the beginning of fall has started, Jesus has put several things on my heart. I have been meditating on the same scripture daily (along with other stuff, of course) and that scripture is found in Galations 5:22, and 1 Corinthians 13. These two passages talk about the fruit that "Life in the Spirit" yields, and then, Love, being the greatest gift from God. The reason I read these daily, over and over is because it is so important to ask Jesus to fill your heart to over-flowing, every day, with His unconditional love, so that in return, we can freely give that love to anyone and everyone we meet.

Paul also tells us several times in his letters that if we have truly left our life as slaves to our flesh, then we have begun to live life by the Spirit. One of the ways we can check to see if we are really living this life is by looking at Galations 5:22-25:

But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law. Those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the sinful nature with its passions and desires. Since we live by the Spirit, let us keep in step with the Spirit.

So, daily, I ask myself: Do I see these 'fruits' in my life? If not, why? What can I do to see them grow? I challenge everyone who reads this to do this as well daily. Never keep the love that God has given you to yourself either! I always think to myself: If people around me can't tell that I am in Love with Christ by the way I talk and act, then something is wrong with me, and I need to change that! Again, I urge you to do the same :)

Infect the world with Love, the Love of Christ.
