Desperate Innovation

If "passion plus lack of resources equals increased innovation" then I finally understand one of the reasons we are seeing success here at our church. We are experts in lack of resources. My dreams are so much bigger than the resources at hand.

You see a guy at the entrance to the church who is crippled and begging. What if he could walk and get a job and not have to beg anymore? What if we could just reach out and lift him up and the handicap just disappeared? I want to see that? I don't have the money to send the guy to the best medical facility available. All I have is a passion to see something change.

What I do have is a faith in a God who is in charge of all resources. What if the resources of heaven could be poured out on all the problems we see around us? What if we became so aware of our lack of resources concerning the realities of everyday life and we became full of passion to see a real change? It might lead us to the greatest innovation, the greatest change that would produce lasting results.

The innovation is God. Lord my we get humble enough and desperate enough to let you be the great innovation in our lives.
