I was cleaning off some stuff on my desk, and I came across this. I'm not sure if I've ever posted this before, but here we go:
I want Christ to build HIS Church
I want services that are Spirit-driven and Spirit-filled, not displays of human talent and effort.
I want Acts 2 miracles and community
I want messages that come from the overflow of the Holy Spirit working in my life, not some human presentation of facts.
I want the power and presence of the Holy Spirit to permeate every person that drives onto this campus, and to direct every person as they drive off of it.
I want to die to the selfish, self-promoting desires of my sinful nature. I don't want to care about the number of twitter followers or blog readers or how many facebook friends I have.
I want to celebrate the movement of God in other churches as much as I celebrate it in my own.
I want to be transformed more into the image of my wonderful Lord, who gave Himself for me.
I want live my life for the applause of God, not the applause of men.
I want to speak with the power and authority of Jesus Christ, not oratory brilliance or great eloquence.
I want to become more of a servant and less of a sergeant in my leadership.
I want my heart to break for lost people.
