Fort Hood and Kirk.

November 9, 2009 in Daybook, Theology by pukeko

Well, got through the weekend. Was on call on Sunday, but managed to get to kirk with the boys. Then got busy: the boys could not get to youth group because I was @ the hospital.

At Kirk, five young people talked about going on mission. As two said, they wanted to make triends and tell people about the Gospel of Christ. This is the same weekend that Maj. Malik, a Palestenian US psychiatrist, killed 13 men, crying “Alluh Akbar”.

Persuasion versus force.

Death versus life.

5The idols of the nations are silver and gold,the work of human hands.

16They have mouths, but they do not speak;

they have eyes, but they do not see;

17they have ears, but they do not hear,

and there is no breath in their mouths.

18Those who make them

and all who trust them

shall become like them.

I spent much time yesterday persuading people to choose life. Dr Malik, who has the same training, chose death.

Let us pray for the families of all involved. May they seek comfort in Christ.
