I can’t believe it’s already four weeks since the last update! In this one we’ll hear from Ron, and then I’ll list the things we are currently praying about. Thanks for sharing this adventure!
From Ron
As the title for this endeavour, Cor Deo, underscores, our ambition is to know and follow “God’s heart” with those who will join us. How will we achieve this goal? The simple answer is that we, alone, will not make it happen. Jesus, speaking of spiritual growth, said as much in John 15.5: “apart from me you can do nothing.” So we are looking to God to achieve this bonding and growth even as we plan together, work together, and live out our own parts of the opportunity together. In all that we do we are to rely on God from the “heart.” This is where the Spirit pours out God’s love, first in us and then through us (see Romans 5.5). As each of us responds to that love we will fulfill our goal. Crucial to this is to have others praying with us and for us: that we would be fully dependent on him and properly interdependent on each other. All readers are invited to play a role here. Will you pray for us? Thank you!
Ron
