"Not called!'" did you say? "Not heard the call," I think you should say. Put your ear down to the Bible, and hear Him bid you go and pull sinners out of the fire of sin. Put your ear down to the burdened, agonized heart of humanity, and listen to its pitiful wail for help.

Go stand by the gates of hell, and hear the damned entreat you to go to their father's house and bid their brothers and sisters and servants and masters not to come there.

Then look Christ in the face ~whose mercy you have professed to obey ~ and tell Him whether you will join heart and soul and body and circumstances in the march to publish His mercy to the world.

~youth

Perhaps one of my most favourite part of being here in Guatemala is being able to serve God along side some of the Met Youth students. In particular, those who have been a part of my small group these past few years. Watching them serve… watching them grow… watching them have their hearts be broken for the lost… for the hurting… for the needy. Watching God stretch them… watching them allowing God to stretch them… wow. Not that I serve God in Met Youth for a reward… but let me tell you… there is no greater reward in serving than this.
