Missionary Blog Carnival

In the most recent Missionary Blog Carnival, I asked people to write about one life they have seen God change.  Of course I have read many blog entries in the past on this topic.  But sometimes we end up writing bits and pieces, and it’s nice to look back and take time to reflect on what God has done over time.

Here are the incredible stories that people entered in this blog carnival:

• Faith Comes by Hearing – from Paraguay, the story of God’s grace in the life of a boy named Jorge.
• Seeing Lives Changed — Dayeinu! – wonderful thoughts about God’s blessings, starting with a man named Esteban in Mexico.
• One Life I Have Seen God Change – the boy was dying and ignored.  But not by God.
• Souls Unseen – you never know what that chance encounter will mean…
• Former gang leader uses rap to spread the Word – but there’s much more to the story than that!
• One Changed Life – changes in the life of a girl named Maria
• Nathan II – changes in a life and in a family
• "God, please, change me," I cry. – a harvest, and reflections on transformation

So often, as Christians, we look at the people around us, and at our own failures, and wonder what kind of influence we’ve really had.  But then we remember – it’s not us, it’s the treasure in clay pots (2 Corinthians 4:7).  It’s not us … it’s Him.
