Picture a young child, say five, walking down a dirt path and grinning from ear to ear. Held tight in one tiny hand is a single, giant, furry finger attached to a towering gorilla. The child smiles brightly and walks confidently believing he is leading this mighty creature.
“We’re not bringing Kingdom,” Benny announced during worship.
Wait…
What?!
So often we are like the child so proud and eager to be bringing along something so amazing to share with everyone. We walk in wide-eyed wonderment feeling good about our abilities to lead and take control.
But really…
God is already moving all over the earth. His Kingdom is happening. Many times we think we have a form of controlling it when really we are just hanging on to the one who is in control.
We’re not bringing Kingdom…
But we are partnering with the One who is.
