It's All Good

"May the God of peace, who through the blood of the eternal covenant brought back from the dead our Lord Jesus, that great Shepherd of the sheep, equip you with everything good for doing his will, and may he work in us what is pleasing to him, through Jesus Christ, to whom be glory for ever and ever. Amen." Hebrews 13:20-21

This is a powerful prayer! Since Jesus is alive - his power is available to us and will give us every good thing we need to do what he's called me to do. A Priest or Pontifix literally means "bridge builder." Every minister stands between two worlds - one foot in a world which is hurting and full of need and one foot the Kingdom of God which holds the capacity to meet every human need.

What an awesome responsibility we have to bring these worlds together and have front row seats to watch the great capacity of God meet every human need and change lives.
