Opportunities

Sometimes in student ministry you get an opportunity to serve at a moment’s notice.  Last weekend we were able to host 5 guys from a ministry in Nebraska who had come to Denver for a big concert.  We found out the details the night they were going to stay with us.  So all 5 holed up in our basement Friday night after the Friday Night Thing.  We had a great time around the late breakfast table on Saturday.

One step from stupid

A reminder to stay alert at all times comes from this man.  Sounds like he enjoyed freedom and rescue over Easter.

Arizona’s state missionary used to tell us “We are all one step from stupid.”  I can sure use this reminder.  It is so easy to be wrapped up in busyness of what we should be doing, that we lose a situational awareness.  Its not hard to find or remember examples of this.

1 Peter 5:   8Be self-controlled and alert. Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour. 9Resist him, standing firm in the faith, because you know that your brothers throughout the world are undergoing the same kind of sufferings.
