What other god's sacrificed themselves for the sake of even those unknown to them. I remember going to the Mormon temple years ago and feeling sick for those lost. I could see the emptiness in the eyes of guides as they explained their beliefs. Here I did not feel that. My lack of empathy caused me miss what my eyes where actually seeing. Thank God for the team he has created. They reminded me of the hope and power we have in Christ....there is more behind all this, but tonight my head is still spinning and my heart is still searching. At the same time, we can rest in sovereignty of the one who brought us here, knowing that he has complete control and will guide and mold beyond what we can comprehend. ~Raechel Kemp

random thoughts mostly on grace
After talking tonight as a team my thoughts were brought to the simplicity of Christianity. What other religions rely not on works, but mere grace (really grace is not mere, but beyond my complete comprehension. What I mean by mere is how we lack the power to save ourselves).
