Our friend Brenda Gatlin wrote an article recently for the Vineyard USA website. The Vineyard church in Duluth has been seeing some great things happen over the past few years, where signficant numbers of people are finding healing and hope in Jesus. Take a peek at the article and read a bit about what motivates their church in this mission.

In the middle of talking with a friend this morning, a song kept running through my head - the new song "Fail Us Not" by the band 1000 Generations. The song is a prayer to God - a gut honest prayer that deals with the real hurt, real failures, and real dissapointments of life. And yet, in the middle of all those raw emotions, the prayer is one of hope and trust, looking to God to be bigger than the battles that we face in life.
As I was looking online for the lyrics of the song, I ran across an awesome website that 1000 Generations put together. www.failusnot.com Not only is there a music video of the song (which was great to send to my friend), but there are also a number of videos that the band and others have posted, where they talk about how they found hope and healing in God, even in the midst of or after very difficult events. I think you'll be encouraged by hearing these people's stories.

Patient Trust |

Over the past few months, I've been reading a great little devotional book put together by Peter Scazzero, "Begin the Journey with the Daily Office." It's a great resource, giving a short scripture to reflect on, a few thoughts and maybe a poem or quote. This morning's devotional was especially good, so thought I'd share a portion.
Devotional:
The image of the Christian life as a journey captures our experience of following Jesus like few others. Journeys involve movement, actions, stops and starts, detours, delays, and trips into the unknown. God called Abraham to leave his comfortable life in Ur at the age of seventy-five and to embark on a long, slow journey; a journey with God that would require much patient trust.
"Patient Trust" by Pierre Teilhard De Chardin
