God Orchestrates Personal Relationships For Divine Purposes

Today was an exciting experience.  We were invited to make a presentation about Oikos to group of Baptist pastors at their county association office.  I got a chance to meet some old friends and meet some new ones.

The presentation went great.  We were greatly encouraged by their comments and their vision for ministry in the 21st Century. 

Also making a presentation was a Messianic Jew from New York.  His name was Israel Cohen.  His ministry, known as Chosen People Ministries, takes him all over the world sharing the rich heritage of the Old Testament with Christians.  He also shares the good news of Jesus Christ with Jews as well. 

I was deeply impressed with his mission.  We connected immediately.  Perhaps this is because I too am a Jew who found Jesus.  Israel said that Oikos was exactly what he needed to communicate with comrades worldwide.

I don’t think our meeting together was a coincidence.  The opportunity to help Israel achieve his mission would be a great blessing to me personally.

I am a firm believer that God orchestrates personal relationships for divine purposes.  

Shalom

    I am so glad that Oikos is blessing lives. I hope and pray that Creekside church will soon have our own. I still have to present it to some folks. God Bless you guys!
