This morning I was on the first flight out of Corpus Christi on my way to Juarez, Mexico for the blessing of leading a time of refreshment and renewal for pastors and their spouses in that city and surrounding area. This has become an annual event and one that I look forward to each year.
This ministry has grown to the point of the creation of an organization to manage the efforts. The organization is called Proyecto Fortaleza (The Strengthening Project), and we exist to minister to pastors and their spouses with particular emphasis on spiritual formation and marriage enrichment. It is a blessing to serve along side a wonderful team of individuals who each have a heart for those who serve God’s church.
As I flew out this morning, the sky was overcast but as we rose above the blanket of clouds, I could see the horizon out the window and the glow that would soon give way to the beginning of the day. As I intently watched for the sun, Bible Gateway’s verse of the day was playing like a recording in my mind. Psalm 19:1-2:
The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of his hands. Day after day they pour forth speech; night after night they reveal knowledge.
It was a breathtaking scene to watch the sun peek through the clouds. The heavens truly do declare God’s glory. We just have to take time to look.
I ask for your prayers this week as our team strives to point God’s servants to the glory and provision of our Lord.
