How did I get here?
Maybe it was that Crazy Love book that I read.... maybe it was indigestion. In any case, about 3 years ago my life began to take a change in direction, gradually at times, rapidly at others..I had no idea that my heart could change so much or that it would lead me to where I am today... sitting in a hotel in Mumbai (Bombay) India.
When did it begin?
It began with a phone call from Miami that really made me ponder that "what if ?"question. I began to wonder what would my life have looked like if had the courage 30 years ago to sell out for the gospel, to trust God for my provision and to steward my gifts for a kingdom other than my own.
Regrets, obedience and gratitude
Do I regret taking the safe course and going into the business world? No, it was very much a life of ministry in its own way and I believe it is a calling as well. I am very grateful for that experience and for my business partners. Their graciousness has allowed me to make this change. But today, I believe I must utilize my gifts and talents in another direction.
Now it is about obedience.
Tonight.
3 years after that phone call I am on the other side of the world, surrounded by a billion plus people ... and they die at the rate of one every second and a half ....lost for all eternity.
But some believe that in this nation we are about to see the largest movement to Jesus in the history of the world. Awesome, what a ride.
