I have seen this before.
More than once.
Yet, every time…
It speaks to me.
I get chills.
I well up.
I want more.
Truth is powerful.
I don’t think I’m there yet.
I’d like to think I am.
But if I’m honest?
I just. don’t. know.
Are YOU there?
Can you say you would be there?
In that situation.
In that moment.
I want to be.
So, so badly.
I'm a mom to four. A wife to one. I believe in story. I love telling you about mine and would love to hear yours. There's really no sense in wasting our suffering and not sharing in each other's joy. We're all in this together...even if it doesn't always feel like it.

Love it Jeannett. Yes, gives me chills too – and brings tears to my eyes. Gosh, I really the love the depth and truth of his teaching.

powerful.
He is so right about the lie that is being spread to the poorest people. It has been my experience that God is glorified through our hard times. I’m not there yet – just in process of refinement.
Wow. I agree about the lies, and I see what he is getting at. He picked a great, heartwrenching example of when salvation in owning a BMW would matter the least. But I know that God delights in our prayers. I don’t understand intercession as it is a mystery to me that our Great Lord would want to include my prayers as something He would listen to. But He does listen, and when we go boldly to His throne with the knowledge that He said, “They have not because they ask not,” He hears. But then again, I’m not asking for BMW’s, and He is glorified in our brokenness. Hmmm.
Good food for thought.
I love this video! I remember the first time I watched it I was in tears… and it still gives me tears. Oh, oh, oh! This is the heart of Christianity….NOTHING but CHRIST!!!
I just found out a former co-worker’s wife died today. Another co-worker’s 46 year old mother died Tuesday.
I (and 8 other co-workers) lost my job last week.
Thank you for sharing this video. Although in tears for the loss, I think I shed more tears for the beauty of Christ.

Love it.
amen. truly and truly, amen.
