Not a stroll

God wonderfully blessed us at the recent MISSIONE 2010 mission congress in Italy.
Some 300 believers from all over Italy assembled to be encouraged and challenged about missions. 30 different organizations set up stands and conversations abounded. 7 different organizations (OM Italy, GBU, UCBC, META, nove37.

FOCUS

One of the challenges of life is to be able to focus. When you're driving (especially me!). When you're writing an essay. When you're despairingly looking at a never-ending to-to list. But above all, in being able to distinguish between what is peripheral and what is central. So often our blur occurs because we focus on the peripheral and not on the central. And this can happen when facing situations, feelings, issues, dreams, opportunities... As you think of us pray that our focus might be clear. Please.
