Description

I am a man who likes to see people connected. If I meet one person here, who can help another person over there, I enjoy putting them in contact with each other. If they are in Jerusalem, and I know someone in Iowa that can meet a need they clearly have, I will "reach out" (overworked words I know, but you understand it) for the benefit of both. Makes common sense to me.The Lord's heart is certainly for that too. He is all about connecting, to having those He has created to get together and fulfill His purposes and plans for each. For that matter, He has intended it to be this way for us to use what each has been given, to "bring it to the table," and fulfill the big picture that He has, not us.It is not about me doing my thing and you doing yours. Separately. It is about coming together and building together. When that happens, then the world will see the Lord's body of believers as we were meant to be seen. Until now, the world thinks very little of Christians and Jews. In many cases, we are both despised people. And no wonder. Most often all they see is fighting, arguments, name calling, and rejection of what the other "church" or "synagogue congregation" is doing. I don't blame them. If I was in the "unbeliever's camp," so would I.Guess what? Our God, the same One Who is bringing back the Jews to their promised Land of Israel, right now, even more so than what He has been in the last 70 years, is also speaking clearly to the other group, "the grafted in ones," Christians, to come back to His plan, and start working together, in unity, as one.
