We Have Everything

Today was our monthly Day with the Lord, and I was walking down Hlavna with my ipod. I was listening to worship music and praying for the thousands of people who need Jesus in this city that has become home to me. A song was playing that said, "What do I have if I don't have you, Jesus?" and I was already almost in tears for these people when I walked by a girl wearing a hat that said "Why don't I have everything?" I was overwhelmed with sadness and compassion for her. And at the same time overwhelmed with thankfulness that Jesus has found me and that in knowing him we have everything. I also started thinking about all the conversations I've been having recently with friends here who still need Jesus. One precious girl told me last week that she doesn't even want to think about whether or not God exists- that it's a waste of those moments of her life. A question with consequences that are eternal, and she doesn't even want to think about it. Please pray with me for these friends and for the lost in Slovakia.
