I bring you greetings from road? Last week, I was asked to share my testimony and what's on my heart with my men's group..... As I recounted all God has done over these 23 plus years of life in Him, I was humbled by His faithfulness & love in my life. He has continually led my life even when I had no clue or understanding of what was next, or even the bigger picture. In the times of being stuck, or being stale, even complaining He still is there leading my path, His way is a promised land and mine a 40 yr shortcut. Celeste & I began this year w/ an extended time of being still and waiting on the Lord. In this time of fasting, praying, & waiting we feel ever so confident that it is time to move ahead. There is such great expectancy in my heart and in my spirit for this year. I believe strongly this is a crucial hour for this ministry and the work ahead of PR. I'm reminded of the intensity of the war to destroy families, marriages & just an all out attack on faith… starting w those in leadership and those on the front lines. To lose the credibility of the God they serve is the one & only goal of the enemy. I've seen and experienced increased struggle as many that we've been called to are poised before the very place they have prayed as they come to the battle lines in this the war over the culture and the hearts and minds of today's youth. I know that we must link arms with the artist; we know that no one can make it alone and we believe we must be available now more than ever to go and walk along side of them. We have also experienced some intense warfare, and with it the same challenges and limitations and am reminded that it is in suffering that God produces character. We are assured that we also will share in the victory and he will be glorified thru it all as we TRUST HIM. Our desire now more than ever is to be available to these artist and the door is open before us in so many relationships in the arts, in music, some acting, some modeling but all have a requested a desire to have us be there. My friend from Ireland calls it the ministry of "presence" just be there and wait for opportunity to hear their heart, their need and speak counsel as led by the Holy Spirit. Many times I am there just to remind them to walk confident in who they are in Him, not independent but interdependent. to listen and help them in this strategic time. This is a spiritual battle, not waged with flesh but by weapons of faith and obedience to see God move and recapture the hearts & imagination of His Kids. These artists don't want to be lone rangers, but have cried out saying, speak into my life, walk with me, and we don't let me be defined by this world.... I just visited with one such group Blindside, and they continue to be so teachable and receptive to God's word. They are believing that they can change this culture one person at a time. The guys in POD. Are in the midst of living out the foundation of this ministry stated in 2Cor 5, it is all about restoration and reconciliation. --thank you again for all your past support and taking time to listen now, we are coming to you because you are the ones who have said yes and support the vision. We hope to continue to serve these artists out of obedience. Thanks for listening, Guido
Philippians 1 verse 3 3I thank my God every time I remember you. 4In all my prayers for all of you, I always pray with joy 5because of your partnership in the gospel from the first day until now, 6being confident of this, that he who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus. 7It is right for me to feel this way about all of you, since I have you in my heart; for whether I am in chains or defending and confirming the gospel, all of you share in God's grace with me. 8God can testify how I long for all of you with the affection of Christ Jesus. 9And this is my prayer: that your love may abound more and more in knowledge and depth of insight, 10so that you may be able to discern what is best and may be pure and blameless until the day of Christ, 11filled with the fruit of righteousness that comes through Jesus Christ—to the glory and praise of God.
"A clean heart is a free heart. A free heart can love Christ with an undivided love in chastity, convinced that nothing and nobody will separate it from his love." Mother Teresa
