Love


I am nothing
Ginny Owens (Christian Pianist and Singer)

I could travel over oceans, cross the deserts, climb the mountains
Just to share Your story, bring You glory, and win souls for You.
I could sing like an angel, songs so humble and so thankful
Full of drama and emotion, so the world would know Your truth.
I could give away my money and my clothes and my food
To restore those people who are poor, lost, and down-and-out.
Oh, I could succeed at all these things,
Find favor with peasants and kings,
But if I do not love, I am nothing.

Songs will fade to silence,
Stories, they will cease.
The dust will settle, covering all my selfless deeds.
So as I strive to serve You,Won't You make it clear to me,
If I do not love, I am nothing.

This week was about Love; love for one another, love from God. I've never laughed and cried so hard with complete strangers, let alone strangers speaking English either as a second language or not at all. It was an amazing week, and I'm so excited to see what lies in store for this year. More pictures have been posted and will be posted throughout the next month. I will write more about what we did as I post the pictures.
