Encouragement for the Team heading to Vilanova!

This devotional was sent to me this morning from Passion City Church (Louie Giglio and Chris Tomlin's church), and I thought it was appropriate for Michael and Cara's team as they leave for Spain today (and also good for our friends in Spain to hear as they struggle to be a "light" in this dark world)....

"But we have this treasure in jars of clay to show that this all-surpassing power is from God and not from us. We are hard pressed on every side, but not crushed; perplexed, but not in despair; persecuted, but not abandoned; struck down, but not destroyed. We always carry around in our body the death of Jesus, so that the life of Jesus may also be revealed in our body. For we who are alive are always being given over to death for Jesus' sake, so that his life may be revealed in our mortal body. So then, death is at work in us, but life is at work in you. "

2 Corinthians 4:7-12

God speed as you head over to my favorite place in the world! I am praying for you all and excited to see pictures and hear all about it! I will be praying for your safe travels, protection from the enemy, that God will be glorified through your words and actions and that He will give you strength and energy in using the skills and gifts that He has already equipped you with!

Love you guys! (AND my 2nd family in Spain)!
