Don’t have time to blog. But, I felt I should ask you all to pray. We’ve had some great meetings here in DC. There is hope. There is no place on this globe beyond the reach of God, if we will only follow Him where He is working and respond to Him. Blackaby taught me that and it’s true.

Got up at 5am to pray, reflect, and then run. I’m in a hotel off the beaten path. When I started running, I found myself near the Iowa Jima Memorial, then Arlington cemetery, where I was running accidentally with dozens of soldiers. I told them how much I appreciated them. Every time I’d pass a group of 5 running with their back packs I’d say, “I appreciate you guys.” Running with them, them preparing for war, next to Arlington cemetery was surreal. They were happy, intense, and focused. I couldn’t stop saying it to them. They were close enough when I said it to one, the others would hear. So how could I say it to one group of 5 and not another group. One guy said before I could get it out, “Yeah, we know, thanks man.”

As Christians, how much will we risk to love others. Two ways to try to change the world. One is to bear arms in the armed forces - that isn’t most of us. The other is to show love in the name of Jesus. “For God so loved the world that He gave . . . ” Thank you God, there will be no cemeteries in heaven!
