Passion... Refocus..


Church was great yesterday.. we talked about many things concerning the Kingdom of God...

We have written on our hearts a pull for the underdog.. something inside of us wants to help the underdog and we even pull for the underdog in ballgames... God has written this on every single one of our hearts.. this is what we are here for.. the underdog..

I have a passion.. I have a passion to seek the underdog.. the lost.. the broken.. I want so bad to be in New Guinea right now where all the riots are taking place.. I desire to be with those people as they are hurting.. I desire to be in Africa with the little kids who are dying of aids and don't understand why... I desire to be in Mexico with all the orphans who do not have people to call family..

Do I desire to be here? Do I desire to be in the US? Do I desire to reach the lost and the broken here?

Why does my heart not cry out for this country? I need to start here.. I need to desire my country.. the lost and broken here before I can go overseas and reach the lost and broken. I need to have a desire for my friends, family and neighborhood before I can truely have a desire for the lost and broken everywhere.

God, work in me.. teach me to have a heart for those around me, give me a burning desire to seek the lost and broken here.
