My Sister just sent this to me, Chew on this one....
Hey Jen, I just read this from the chapter, Prayer Grasps Eternity in Why Revival Tarries by Leonard Ravenhill. It's pretty stinking good and convicting.
"We have many organizers, but few agonizers; many players, few payers; many singers, few clingers; lots of pastors, few wrestlers, many fears, few tears, much fashion, little passion; many interferers, few intercessors, many writers, but few fighters. Failing here, we fail everywhere. "
Give me the Passion! - Jen

It's pretty profound. Kind of sums up a lot of Western Christianity huh? I know we've talked before about the burden of overactivity and overextension, especially in 'good' church things. The real challenge though is to have as deep of a heart for Christ and as deep of a burden for his people as our mere involvement leads us to believe we have.
Lovin' You!
