Our Stateside home church, Restoration Presbyterian Church, held a women's ministry event on Saturday, December 2nd in preparation for Christmas. I was honored to be asked to be the "guest lecturer" to expound on John 6, as Jesus explains that He is the Bread of Life, and specifically describe how the Lord has been shaping me over the past year with this text and how I have been able to apply it here in Romania. The entire lecture is included below as a video, so feel free to check it out.
After reading so many missionary biographies, I am so very, very grateful for things like modern technology - which allow me to continue participating with events going on back in the States. Can you imagine being a missionary who says goodbye, sets sail, and heads into the completely unknown and isolated? I am so glad that the Lord has not called me to that type of mission work!
As we draw nearer to Christmas, it is our prayer that you would be able to truly savor our Savior as your Bread of Life - that He would be what fills you up this Christmas rather than anything else. That we would all be able to reflect on the ways that the Lord uses difficult circumstances and teaching in our lives to draw us closer to Him. That we would all be able to focus on Christ this Christmas!
