No-one is good but for (the nature of, & life and time spent with) God alone

Re: Thank you good brother...

Hi Paul.  It has been a good time (in another country) .... I sense it's building something of a bond between us (who are journeying together). It's been interesting here .... It's been good going through Knowing Him: a Fifty Day Study on the Life of Christ ... as we do things here. We've spent a few days...  (among people whose) movement aims to plant 100 000 ... (communities of people intent on following Jesus) among some of the most unreached (with the message of God's appointment of Jesus as the Leader of Humanity) people groups on earth by 2030. They major on training facilitators for the communities in Transformation centres that are like our first year communities (they aim for 35 000 facilitators by 2030). We spent the day in one today (see the picture below).Yesterday three of us helped run ... in a slum a meeting to honour Christ as leader. The little girl in the second picture was picked up from a rubbish tip aged two days in another slum that we visited in the afternoon. She's now in a family where a household ... aims to honour Christ in that slum.The level of commitment of these young facilitators is amazing. It's very sad how soft we've become in Australia with the prosperity and safety we enjoy. Grace and peace...


Amen, amen! We ARE; so DO as should!
How good of God. Yeah WE know that’s like him(!)
to do these good things. He's the source of GOOD;
& also to "waste time" seeing, looking (?)

at GOOD, the way it worked together for
more GOODness that could grow, and bear more fruit.
God help us to appreciate some more
your goodness that's around us, & is beaut!

I just remembered Judas' complaint
'bout lack of money given to the poor,
& John's small comment that his motives w'aint
so good, and then how Jesus didn't score

against him on the good thought of giving.
And also how he says "You feed these  folk",
who had given of themselves, their living,
to speed God's mission on within each bloke.

God make what Marty saw please come more true...
for you have said you've put your nature in
all people now in Christ (who're joined to you),
& they, each day, wear A "shroud of Turin"...

Our "day of death", our ritual washing is
commemorating - & our "burial" too.
Then ON with life, & "resurrection" biz;
so we'll recall that, each washing we do!

& see that we add goodness to our faith,
with perseverance, knowing, ... through to love.
Because you are our Father, not our Wraith,
we'll copy all we see that's from above.

Amen amen.
