2017 Mission Garland

New World UMCPastor's Blog

If you walk into our church this week you might look around and say, “What a mess!” And you would be right. Our youth have been engaged in mission projects and worship and camping out at the church all week along with our summer day school program. It’s noisy and it looks rather strange. In fact, it’s a holy mess! Isn’t that wonderful?! I’ve discovered that God has a way of bringing the greatest miracles out of messy places. God showed up in the middle of a messy stable and a miracle was born. If God could do that, then surely, God can handle any messes in our lives, even the ones we’ve created. If your life is a bit messy right now it’s okay! Believe that God is with you and that God will make your mess the holy ground where miracles are born.
