Texas Fires, California Floods


The idea of catatrophic events unfolding around us makes me feel kind of strange. On the one hand I know that people's lives are changed because of these events. Life is never the same after one sustains great loss. However, because of this event these people are seeking a new normal for their lives. That's where the strange feeling comes in. Opportunity occurs for the void to be filled by Jesus and His love for them at this point. Strange feeling because I sit poised to minister when people's lives are upside down.

The strange feeling is ok for me to experience and for our team to experience. We don't just sit and wait for bad things to happen, we are busy trying to make preemptive strikes before the tragedy occurs. It is always better to have Jesus and God on board before the crisis.

I wanted to add a picture to today's post to remind us of a family that experienced God's love by using the Response Teams Hands. May god continue to bless each of you.
