Where do you look?

Two nights ago I kidnapped Austin Hardison to initiate him onto FCA's leadership team for next year. He was not certain that he was going to do it when the rest of the team was kidnapped so the new team kidnapped him to accept him into the family.
We took him, blindfolded, up to the top ridge at Hart's Cove and showed him the view of Clemson. This showed him his mission field as a whole, the campus of Clemson and sometimes the community surrounding. As I was taking him up there I thought about what else to do and thought of the dike up at the rowing facility. So we re-blindfolded him and took him to the dike at the rowing facilities. When re unblindfolded him it showed him another angle of the campus. From the dike he could not see the whole campus, similar to our life, working hard for a bigger project, a bigger vision than what we can see.
This is something i think we are often guilty of.... wanting to see and do everything in the ministry.

mother Teresa,
In this life we cannot do great things. We can only do small things with great love.
It is not how much we do... but how much love we put in that action.

We need to trust and know that what we are doing does not show the full picture but is a part of a bigger picture, a bigger battle, a bigger community.

Find your place among Jesus's followers and pursue it with Great Love.
Far Away

not sure what to post about....

Apparently this method is bass ackwards but i decide i am going to post then decide what to post...

The break down of man.

I bought an ipod today... It was the shuffle... 1 gb 80 bucks a lot of convenience. It was a tough step... I sat at that final checkout page for about 30 min before i actually bought it. Working out is the number one reason i bought it. I just see a lot of advantages to having it...

I cracked. i am 12% a part of the apple family but I PROMISE i am a red headed step child and everyone else in the family hates me. and i want to keep it that way
