I have been asked to provide a letter of encouragement to a couple of special ladies going on a mission trip to NYC this week. I searched the Bible I believe God's words to much more powerful than anything I could come up with on my own. But as I think about what I found and the call that we all have been given, some of us answering the call and moving forward while others are still wondering "should I?", that this is good for all of us, and this is my prayer for you
Ephesians 3:14-19 My response is to get down on my knees before the Father, this magnificent Father who parcels out all heaven and earth. I ask him to strengthen you by his Spirit—not a brute strength but a glorious inner strength—that Christ will live in you as you open the door and invite him in. And I ask him that with both feet planted firmly on love, you'll be able to take in with all followers of Jesus the extravagant dimensions of Christ's love. Reach out and experience the breadth! Test its length! Plumb the depths! Rise to the heights! Live full lives, full in the fullness of God
