Psalm 113:4

The Lord is higher than all the nations.
His glory rises to the skies.
No person is like the Lord our God.
God sits high in heaven.
God is so high above us that he must look down,
to see the sky and the earth.

God lifts poor people out of the dirt.
God takes beggars from the garbage dump.
And God makes those people important.
God makes those people important leaders.

Charles and Darlene shared this verse (from the Easy-to-Read translation) with us last night and talked about how they have seen this verse played out in the streets and the slums time and time again. They have seen God work miracles in the lives of street children. They have a front row seat to what God does every day.

I am sure we all are given the opportunity to see (and even partake) in these miracles, but somehow I think we miss those in our busy lives in Irving. How do we change our daily routine (or just change our perspective or mindset) back home so that we can participate? There is no doubt in my mind that its a possibility, we just have to be open to it. Any thoughts from our readers?

NOTE: Charles and Darlene are flying back to California today. Please keep them in your prayers as they travel back home.
