I think … my favorite room at the health center is the exam room. How can I capture and adequately describe the moments when I am able to see glimpses of the Kingdom of God? I see it in the testimony of the men and women I meet with in the space of these rooms. I yearn for it when hope is but a faint glimmer. And yet, I hold onto that glimmer fervently. The Kingdom of God - it is not an ephemeral reality but one that reverberates and radiates forth from Jesus. The tension of Kingdom now and Kingdom come is perhaps a double-edged sword: I have the honor of being used by Christ and to partake in Kingdom ministry here on earth; yet, it is all done quite brokenly and imperfectly. My prayer for greater hunger for the Lord, for my eyes and heart to see Heaven on earth, for repentance and for humility. To be able to love extravagantly and continue to walk with Jesus.
