Reflections on Missions Conference 2010...

After two full days of talking with missionaries, sitting in sessions, eating wonderful ethnic food, and drawing henna on people, there is so much to reflect on. We enjoyed a wonderful speaker who focused on God- as the theme was "soli deo gloria"- To God alone the glory. He spoke about many things, but the one that struck me the most was in today's session. He told us of the story of Paul/Saul being stuck with blindness after his encounter with God, and how God called Ananaias to go and touch him so that he would be healed. If Ananaias hadn't responded to God and been obedient, Paul's mission may not have been accomplished. So when God asks us to do something, when he calls us to obedience, what are we going to do? How will we respond?
