The end of the road?

The last leg of the journey...

It's just a few more hours until the end of the 3 day adventure God has been leading us into. A few more hours before totals are tallied... and praises are poured out. You know what's really cool? The praise doesn't depend on the totals, because my Father has poured out so much more than financial support this Sharathon. Maybe it's just me, but I have felt the clean, sweet air of freedom filling this place from day 1... mixing with the smells of chicken and carry the sounds of joy. I could say this Sharathon has changed... but maybe it's just me that's changed. In any case, my Father never changes - He just gets bigger and bolder, richer and more wonderful with each new thing I learn about Him.

And there's still so much to learn...

All because of Jesus. What a great theme. What a great reality check. He is the never changing constant that anchors us, shelters us, holds us in His arms. My life is not drawn from a bank account or a government or a culture... or even from my own self-image. I am in Christ, hidden - but living out loud.

I do have my moments... I mean, I only have to look in the mirror a little too long to start to doubt. But if I make Jesus Himself my mirror....

I am free.

Only a few hours to go. And the journey has just begun...
