I love the statement that Paul says in the Bible...
2Cor. 4:7 But we have this treasure in jars of clay to show that this all-surpassing power is from God and not from us. 8 We are hard pressed on every side, but not crushed; perplexed, but not in despair; 9 persecuted, but not abandoned; struck down, but not destroyed. 10 We always carry around in our body the death of Jesus, so that the life of Jesus may also be revealed in our body. 11 For we who are alive are always being given over to death for JesusÂ’ sake, so that his life may be revealed in our mortal body. 12 So then, death is at work in us, but life is at work in you.
Been sick and down...but not crushed...
sciaticac Nerve... Gouty Arthritis... Lower Back Out... Moved... Had a baby... these are just a couple of the crazy things over the last 40 days. Please keep us in your prayers.
Just a couple of things... What I learned through it is that God brings together a community of believers to minister even to the one who thinks that he is to minister to them. We all need each other.
Community is critical and a foundational element to what we are doing.
Blessings... More later... Hand has arthritis pretty bad and it makes it hard to type.
Remember to allow God to knit the hearts of the community together. It is not something that happens through "strategic planning", but rather through prayer and living life together.

We do all need each other. God does have a way of keeping us interdependent if we will let him. Sorry that you have to be the "broken but not crushed" link in the chain.
We be praying.
