a mission i can get behind

This is an idea I’ve been ruminating on for awhile and this seems to sum it up beautifully — a redemptive and stirring thought for a beautiful fall day.

“Missions then is less about the transportation of God from one place to another and more about the identification of a God who is already there [...] You see God where others don’t. And then you point him out. So the issue isn’t so much taking Jesus to people who don’t have him, but going to a place and pointing out to the people the creative, life-giving God who is already present in their midst. ” [Rob Bell]

I hope your day is beautiful and that your eyes spot the small places where the Sacred rests, waiting for us to discover Him like diamonds in the rough.
