Worship is a result of revelation. This seems to be a
reoccurring topic, and one of great joy.
Tonight I am writing from a little cosy house in Benoni where I am
staying with two beautiful people growing in peace. I have come to Benoni to visit the congregation. God is working change within the congregation
for a while now, and the Ministry Support team have been grated the privilege
to be part of this process. They asked
us to assist in some of the changes, and blessing me, I shall be spending some
time here growing with them.
The individual responsibility of each of the members of the
congregation is a growing priority among the leaders of the congregation. This often-mentioned need rarely receives appropriate
or effectively attention. This is my
reason for joy this evening. I come to
bear witness that God has revealed His holiness and loving care to this
congregation, and they respond accordingly.
The fruit of their love are multiplying thought the way that God
continues to work in and though them.
Many a sceptic may rebuke me for being naïve in wanting to
see this. Members growing to bear the
fruit they were created for, acts of service and love in reaction to the grace
of God. This may be true, but who could
blame me? I do desperately want to see
this truth, this part of the purpose of His bride. Whatever the reason, I remain hopeful to see
His name lifted high.
Tasting some of this love in this borrowed home, how could I
remain silent? O, how wonderful to be part of God’s story, through the love for
His bride, to show the world the much needed love it longs for.
