INDIA HOW I MISS THEE…(A PRAYER BLOG)

by |

THE POST BELOW IS FROM OUR REMEDY BLOG. I POSTED THE FIRST ONE HERE FOR YOU, BUT PLEASE FOLLOW HERE!!!

Yesterday I had the joy of hanging out with one of those people I have collided with in life that is steadily becoming a great friend. Jeremy and I headed down to the West Village in Dallas yesterday and had an afternoon of conversation with Anne Jackson. Now she has lots of accolades behind her name and is a mind of brilliance, especially in the Christian world. What I love about Anne is that she is continually wrestling with and having open and hard conversations within the context of life and ministry.
Now you may be wondering why the introduction above. Well…glad you asked. Anne, Pete Wilson (Lead pastor at Crosspoint.tv) and a team of peeps are going to board a plane and head to India for the next few weeks. They are going to encounter things they have never experienced before. They are going to touch poverty in a way they have never touched it before. They are going to smell poverty in a way they have never smelled it before. The are going to have new eyes given to them to help them see in a way they have never seen before. One and a half years ago I was right there. I was in the heart of one of the most poverty stricken countries in the world and it completely messed me up when I came home. I know that when Anne, Pete and there team return they will not be the same. I also know that they are going to want to do something about that when the return. SO….here is what I submit:

This is a community where we want to support the oppressed and those that are working with the oppressed. It is tough in both realms. So we are going to dedicate this space to praying for this trip and their journey over the next few weeks. Please leave comments of encouragement and prayers for them. Let them know that you support them. Let them know that you will be here to work through it all when they get back. More than anything…pray that God would use them in incredible ways to reach and touch the untouchable of society.

About the Author

Trevor

What makes me...well...me? There are a lot of things that make up the complexities of who I am. I love God, my wife, my two little girls, and all types of crazy interesting people. I love good conversation, a bit of controversy, rebellion with a cause, and hot green tea. I love to write, read, take photos, and spend time on my patio with good friends and my beautiful family. Scripture confuses, perplexes, intrigues, and floors me. It brings me hope, joy, and frustration. I work for one of the greatest churches in the country with the greatest team ever assembled. We will challenge you and your staff to a duel on the playground at 3:10 on any afternoon. This space is for us to conversate and share thoughts on life, love, creativity, and ministry. Welcome to my little nook of the web. I hope you will come in, take off your shoes and stay awhile.
