Hittin' the street

Today was our first day out on the streets of Newberg. We started with some teaching from Darin Lindly, then he went out with us to hit the streets to go where Jesus wanted us to go, and to bless who those Jesus wanted us to bless.

God showed himself real to many of those on the trip, as well as on the streets. Of which stories will come. But something that God was revealing is that we must diminish and he must increase. The places He directed us to go and the things he had for us to say didn't come from ourselves. It came from God. The boldness to reach out and the action we took today were all orchestrated by God. I know this because the Bible says that apart from Him we can do nothing. He is our vine. We are His branches.
