A passion for the city

Share post ->

Tonight I had a great privilege to be part of the a short term mission training in my church.

It was a spirit-filled time. Lots of laughter, sharing and praying. The team is made up of majority youths and I am excited to see the values we are instilling among the youths (that prayer is key in mission, all Christians are missionary, going to church, tithing, does not make you a Christian etc.)

Great times…as I hear them pray, they are focus on letting God to transform them and lead by the Holy Spirit.

We went onto a discussion about revival. The question was ask…how come there is no revival in Mississauga..

and the answer is very clear (if not painful).

– we don’t pray enough
– we don’t think it is important
– we don’t care
– we are too busy

…..

so as I was riding my bike back home. In my city. In my neighborhood. I cannot stop and wonder…when was the last time I pray for Mississauga? Rare was the answer….

All great things start with prayer….and from our knees (ain’t my quote…i summarize from another missionary).
