What would you say if I told you that you were being taken care of 24 hours 7 days week?

 You may think its a joke. Who is this person willing to be so caring towards me? I think that this attitude is a battle that we have when it comes to fully understanding that we truly have a God who is always caring and watching over us constantly. How could someone find me worthy enough to care for me night and day?

 John 10: 3-4 states:
“The gatekeeper opens the gate for him, and the sheep recognize his voice and come to him. He calls his own sheep by name and leads them out. After he has gathered his own flock, he walks ahead of them, and they follow him because they know his voice”

In this parable we are sweetly reminded that we have a Shepherd who is there taking care of us.

We are His sheep and He is our Shepherd.

This past Monday night, Pastor Virginia preached this exact word in Downtown Miami. It was wonderful and it was true beyond our understanding. In the midst of this word, many asked themselves that question I asked earlier: "Who are we, that God would delight himself in us and call us by name to return to His flock?"  That's the good God we have. He knows each struggle, each emotion, and He still finds worth through it all.

Our Mission
Our mission is to remind others how loved they are by a loving, faithful, and passionate Shepherd. He continually watches over us and when we feel alone in a tough circumstance, like the homeless of Downtown Miami, He will never us alone leave in a barren land without an escape. Being in the streets is so hard and can get so lonely. I put myself in these shoes and I cannot imagine the desperation I would feel at times.

Our Prayer Tonight
So our prayer is that the love of God may fall down on these streets and may we see little chunks of heaven here on earth. The night to say the least was incredible, as well as a very packed one. We had delicious meat pasta served alongside some refreshing drinks. We had a line of over 65 people, and God provided for every single one like he always has. Were so thankful for what God has been doing in this ministry and were so expectant for more. Continue praying for those lives at downtown, and for us to be used powerfully in their lives.

God bless,
