Somethin's burnin...

This morning I had a very cool thing happen at church.  There's this young man, maybe 17 or so...who is new to Grace.  Very humble, very quiet, very polite... He kind of blends in with the rest of the crowd and could easily go unnoticed.  He was baptized at the Big Event at Grace Church (gracechurchreno.org) .  He's new to faith in Christ and I'm here to say:  there's something burning inside...

He came up to my office and asked me to plug in his iPod.  He played a beat and shared a song he had written about Jesus that included this powerful....SUPER powerful, bold, creative rap that spoke the Truth about his transformation...

This quiet young man poured out his heart through this ability I would have never known he had the guts to do...

Makes me think:  How many of us are sitting on some kind of God-given gift?  How many of us are ok with blending in while letting some huge calling quietly die inside us?

Is God calling you to more?  Are you willing to step out and see what He does, through you?

  1. A blog about rap lyrics - that would be awesome! :)Would be a great way for him to share himself with many, many others.
