Warm Greetings to you from Mozambique!
I just woke up this morning with you all on my mind, wishing you could see the harvest that is all around me. Despite the challenges of "life" here in Mozambique, I'm ever aware of God's goodness, grace and presence... and I just can't help but revel in the wonder of His generous love (especially in the midst of the fuss and fray of opposition).
God has surrounded me (and all of us here) with true, battle-seasoned saints. We're Christian comrades: brothers and sister all carrying that common obsession to fix our eyes on Jesus and contend together to manifest Him, even in the hard, dark places on planet earth. And what is more, I have comrades back home, too, like you, who also contend and advance God's kingdom there. And I can't help but give thanks for you!
We're all "running hard" in this race. We're in different lanes but we're in the same race and running towards the same goal. And when I'm weary or discouraged all I need to do is to look around me and see you all, and so many others too, who are still running towards Jesus and our common high call.
Let's continue to "following the Lamb, wherever he goes." Let's continue to "rejoice in all things". Let's continue to "consider it pure joy" even when we are encountering various trials, because it's true that the testing of our faith is producing endurance." Your perseverance, courage, faith inspire me. You prayers and support carry us. Thank you!
"Bear fruit that remains."
