today timmy preached over james 5.1-4. one thing he said has resonated with me all day long. timmy was talking about the people in this passage being oppressed by rich men who were storing and hoarding things and money for themselves. he talked about modern day poverty and the humiliation that people face on a daily basis and then talked about how quickly we forget those hardships when we live in comfort. it was kind of intense. then he said, "we might forget about the poor, but God doesn't forget."
i love listening to timmy preach. he challenges me all the time, not just with his words but more so with his actions; his love for God and his love for people and his love for me.
he really challenged me to pray for God to bring people who need Him into my life again.
on another note... some good friends from joplin came and visited this weekend. i was so encouraged to hear what they have been seeing God do.
love.
