What makes you smile?
This week as I was teaching my missions class, I asked them, 'What makes you smile?' Then I asked, 'What makes God smile?'
We, in our humaness, focus on the physical and circumstances. I think our motives make God either smile or bring tears to His eyes. We looked at passages in Isaiah and Psalms to remind us what it means to bring God glory. It was a lot of fun to talk with people from a totally different background and perspective about this. We have so much to learn from each other and to challenge each other with.
Psalm 51:10-12
"Create in me a pure heart, O God, and renew a steadfast spirit within me. Do not cast me from your presence or take your Holy Spirit from me. Restore to me the joy of your salvation and grant me a willing spirit to sustain me."
It's been another good, busy week. Fall weather is coming to Ukraine. It's been beautiful and sunny all week. We are looking forward to visiting a multi cultural church plant in the heart of Kiev on Sunday afternoon. It is so wonderful to serve a God who loves the world!
