Our Mission is Fuelled by the Very Energy of Our Creator

Dear Friend, 

As the seasons change, I’m reflecting on God’s power and sufficiency. It’s important to remember that the Almighty expends no energy that needs replenishing. 

I know that you can do anything, and no one can stop you. (Job 42:2)

Isn’t that a comforting thought? All power resides in God’s infinite being—not a drop diminished, not a moment of weariness. He created all things from nothing, enables each breath, and orchestrates every detail without ever needing assistance. 

The Real You: Becoming Authentic to the Core

The Lord has told you what is good,

and this is what he requires of you:

to do what is right, to love mercy,

and to walk humbly with your God.

(Micah 6:8)

Most can snuff out a religious phony coming a mile away. Few odours smell worse! But the sweet fragrance of authenticity…there’s nothing like it.

After I entered the Marine Corps, they sent me 8,000 miles from home to the island of Okinawa. When I got the orders, I thought God made a mistake. In hindsight, I realize He was shaping me for a lifetime of pure devotion to Him.
