This morning I had my 1st opportunity to attend worship here at Yongsan. I was blessed to be able to attend the Contemporary Worship Service at the South Post Chapel called the "ROCK Service - Relying On Christ in Korea." My heart was overwhelmed with the beauty of a multi-racial, multi-ethnic worship service that was centered on worshipping Jesus as Savior and Lord. The Chaplain who led the service this morning was an Army Chaplain who was Korean. He preached on Acts 4:1-10 about the beggar at the Beautiful Gate. He accentuated a point that I have made many times - God meets us at the level of our expectancy. Many times we complain and fuss about our situation, and we ask where is God in this or that. My response is this - did you come with a sense of anticipation & expectation to see God move? Do you still believe in a God who heals the sick, opens the eyes of the blind, walks on water, and raises the dead? I SURE DO!!! There is nothing in this life that our God is not able to give us victory over.
Also got to talk to my family via Skype for a few minutes. I so enjoyed talking to all of them, along with a brief visit with the Roots. Technology is such a great blessing in seasons such as these.
Well heading to the field for the next week. I will write again when I return.
A Fellow Pilgrim,
Joe
