Longing to be like Him!

The longer I serve my Savior the more I long to be like Him. I long to see this world through His eyes. His eyes were full of compassion, love and genuine concern for others. As I minister in the country of Croatia I pray that I can be more like Jesus in my service, compassion and boldness to preach the Gospel to every man, woman, boy and girl! I realize and confess that without Him I can do nothing. I need Him, and desire to be close to Him. 

As I look back on several years of service I can honestly confess that I'm not what I used to be. However, I also must confess I'm not yet all that I should be! As for me, I will behold thy face in righteousness: I shall be satisfied, when I awake, with thy likeness. (Psalm 17:15)

May the Lord help me to be more like Jesus as I long to be like Him!

God's good!

Well Glory! We finished our conference yesterday, all I can say is that God is good! The Lord saved three Croatian souls! Bro Smith was used in a great way. Our hearts were stirred and we all got closer to God. In the afternoon he taught on Beholding His Glory! It was a great blessing to be reminded that we need to focus on Jesus, and less on self! I'm looking forward to seeing what God is going to do for our Church as we continue to serve the Lord!

Great start!

We kicked off both conferences yesterday and heaven came down! Brother Smith did an excellent job and my heart was really blessed. I'm looking forward to what will happen today.

In the morning we are having sessions for missionaries, and the theme is behold His Glory! I know in my life I need to behold His glory and not try to live for my glory! Brother Smith painted a wonderful picture of the glory of Christ!

In the evenings we are having a revival for our church here. The theme is about the end of the world. Last night Brother Smith preached on earthquakes, and everyone was looking for Jesus, after they heard that message! My heart was stirred to do more for Jesus, for He really could come back today!

We also had a first time visitor show up, named Vladamir. He was glorious saved last night!

Just wanted to thank all of you for praying! Please continue to do so, we hope even greater things will happen tonight!

Brother Scott leading the singing! He has a servants heart and has really been a blessing to me along with his entire family!
