"If God is not with us, we do not want to continue. If the Sermon on the Mount is simply impractical, our mission work is hopeless. We have no backup plan. We have nothing but Him." --Heidi Baker
Amen, sister! Here at IHOP, we are specifically, radically called to live a Sermon on the Mount lifestyle. We love Jesus, we pray, we serve. I, myself, have a ways to go still.
A quote from Mother Teresa:
"The world today is hungry not only for the bread but hungry for love; hungry to be wanted, to be loved. They're hungry to feel that presence of Christ. In many countries, people have everything except that presence, that understanding. That's why the life of prayer and sacrifice comes to give that love. By being contemplative, you are to be that presence, that bread of God to break."
Lord, let me be that presence, that bread of God to break.
Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they will be filled.
