God sets eternity in the Hearts of Men

God's Word says, if I be lifted up - I will draw all men unto myself.  I find comfort in Jesus being the only one who can save.  Good friend's of ours who have devoted their life to serving Jesus in Haiti often remind us that the only true difference we make in Haiti, the World or in life is leaving a legacy of the only thing that doesn't return void...the gospel - God's Word! They get passionate about feeding people temporal food and then talk about having people fat and in Hell versus skinny but in Heaven.  Just wanting to keep the main thing...the main thing.  Well, tonight we saw the kingdom of God in our meek living room.

Today was another great day of ministry:
-Water delivered to the jail
-A kid's hurt foot taken care of
-Reconciliation biblical meetings in our home
-Discipleship meetings
-Fellowship and prayer with a young adult couple pursuing God's will for their  lives

BUT THEN,  (don't you love those words)  I LOVE when the Bible says, BUT God  (so powerful) 
Everyday we pray that our home and family is an aroma of Christ, a testimony and example - Right now in that I hear the Word...If I be lifted up, I will draw...
Tonight during family Bible Study a young man named Maxion who has become family and comes in the evenings for devotion time, surrendered his life to Jesus!  His commitment to Christ through salvation got the other boys who come with him, Alince and Eddie talking about their salvation.  They know they are Christians but have never been baptized so they want to be obedient to follow Christ in baptism.  THANK you Lord that you are at work!
