Kaohsiung Ministry

Sarah is in tears. I am also crying. We are both listening to Bishop Matt Thomas share the Word of God during this devotion time for our Annual Conference Meeting 2011. We are both challenged by God's word and Pastor Matt's exhortation. "People who want to serve God now are pleasing the Lord." Serving God is in the now. The past and the future, including the long range plans and future goals, are in God's hands. He will take care of them. Matt rattles off verses after verses, and all I could hear is God's assurance that Taiwan is His place for me. Matthew 25, the Parable of the Good Samaritan, Luke 14, and other portions of Scriptures. "Stay focused on me, and I will build my Church in Kaohsiung." These are the very words He is telling me. I bow my head. In the corner of my eye, I see Sarah wiping off her teary eyes. I know, God is talking to both of us. He is leading us.
