Last night was really awesome in so many different ways. One reason was Walter. Walter was born in Korea, came to the states at about 16, was in the Navy and is an aeronautical engineer. He also became a believer in Christ just a few years ago. He shared his story with us, ministered to us and left us with his contagious joy. The most beautiful part of our discussion, to me, was on how being broken brings us closer to Jesus, and so it should fill us with joy and we should rejoice. Thank you Lord for Walter, his passion and contagious joy for You, and for crossing our paths so we could encourage and build each other up. "Let me hear joy and gladness; let the bones you have crushed rejoice. Hide your face from my sins and blot out all my iniquity. Create in me a pure heart, O God, and renew a steadfast spirit within me." ~Psalm 51:8-10 #rejoicealways #jesus #thechurch #joy
