Global Connect
A talk by Andrew Jones http://tallskinnykiwi.com for
         Global Connect Conference
        [Christian Associates International]
           in a small town somewhere
            in the middle of Germany
                     Aug 2010
A talk so profound
that it does not even have a title.
but probably would have a title
     if only Andrew was more
organized and less scatter-brained.
This is my latest t-shirt idea . . . .
This is the truck our family travels in.
Why is the




                   `



             like a box of chocolates?
Because . . .
Sooo many changes going on in our world . . .
Sometimes the
way forward seems
impossible.
It’s so easy to
   get lost.
Knowing what to do can be
    really really really
    RIDICULOUSLY
        difficult!
Sometimes you forget that you are
   on a mission from God.
Sometimes you run up
    against evil.
Sometimes your friends think you are weird.
`



Sometimes you
   feel like
  burying
 your talents.
Sometimes you are tempted
to retrieve what worked in the past.
It’s OK to try something new.
. . . or even a few new things.
Cast your bread upon the waters
for after many days
you will find it again



        give portions to
                           7      or even to
                                               8
for you
do not know
what disaster may
come upon the land.
Sow your seed in the morning
and do not stop
working until evening



                    for   You do not   K    now

which activity will succeed
whether this one or that one,
or whether both will prosper equally.
                                Ecclesiastes 11:1-2
Go to the ant, you sluggard
         observe its ways and be wise.
It has no overseer, commander or ruler,
  yet it prepares its food in the summer;
it gathers at the harvest what it will eat.
                           Proverbs 6:6-8
God has placed in you
a spring of living water.
Stream your life.
Sometimes you just have to leap out.
“Leaping Out” would have been a good title.


                        Thanks for listening.
      God bless the works of your hands.
