Convocations
Today is Project: Graduation at ACU. It’s Centennial year, I have been amazed at the BIGGNESS of this whole event. Megatrons all over campus, tents, chairs…it will be something to behold.
Another cool thing: mom is coming into town later today, and will be staying with the Mackey’s, the house we are moving into in a week or two. It will be good for her to meet them, to know what loving people we are moving in with.
Another really cool thing!: Yesterday was the second convening of the Secret Agents in Abilene, Agent B, the Librarian, Jack-of-all-trades, and myself.  It was great just sharing ideas and laughter and secret agent stuff with each other. What I found most interesting was that when we began praying for those who don’t know the Lord, a few of us realized that we were ministering to the same people!
This could have two meanings: either we are permeating the entire popularion of Abilene’s lost and therefore running into each other, or we are focusing on too narrow a population, while remaining totally blind to the thousands of others who are lost in our fair mother city. Now, I know that just a couple of secret agents for the chief executive officer of the universe is not the only forces he is working with – but why should we settle for only seeing one sector of our city touched by the Gospel? Why not at least get to know people from other neighborhoods?
Gotta love these guys, because more than anyone else I know, they are looking for new people who need to know the Lord, and making deep commitments of time, resources and love into these people letting them know that they matter to God. These are the kind of guys I want to hang around. Our secret agent group is planning to meet more regularly for prayer and hamburgers. Not a bad deal.
