BEN

Ben served on the UPG Adventure
     There has been many things that the Lord is teaching me while I have been here this summer. Two lessons have been on my mind all summer.
     The first is to follow God with no questions, no reserves. I have learned to follow day by day, hour by hour, step by step, person by person. Follow in love as a child. Eph 5 has been a great encouragement to love all the people I come into contact with.
     The other lesson is that God daily asks us to get into the boat that He captains and go fishing with Him. We will not always catch something but we can be dropping lines. In the end we may not have something to show except our bait bucket is a little less empty than before. We may not see what happens at the end of the line that we drop because that is up to God. At the end of the day we may not have a catch but we know the Captain that much better and we went with Him. That is what matters most.
I am still learning and growing in leaps and bounds! Please continue to pray for the lines that have been dropped where our team is at. The people are so lost and God loves them more than they know!
Worthy is the Lamb!
Resting in Peace,
Ben
