Our time in Europe so far has absolutely FLOWN by! We have been here over a week now, but it seems like we just arrived in Paris! So much has happened since then...God has blesssed us more than we could have ever imagined!
This morning we were driving to Casa Agar (Hagar House -- the central location of the Touched Romania ministry. 5 women and their children live there right now. The TR offices are also located nearby.) and the song God of this City by Chris Tomlin came on. It came on just as we were driving through the city of Bucharest, and that song has never been more powerful to me. I have listened to it hundreds of times before, but never really felt how true those words were. Here are the lyrics for the first few lines:
You're the God of this city
You're the King of these people
You're the Lord of this nation
You Are
You're the light in this darkness
You're the hope to the hopeless
You're the peace to the restless
You are
As we drive through this city in one of the poorest countries in Eastern Europe, it's easy to feel hopeless and pity for the people of this place. But our God is THE God of this city! He is hope to the hopeless! Peace to the restless! And we have this tremendous opportunity to shine His light into this dark place! That song has an entirely new meaning for me. Wow.
Please keep praying for us as we continue our time here! Please also pray for the ladies at Casa Agar, as well as the Berlin Team!!
