The Language of Abandonment

Wonderful things were spoken last night at Apex. It felt as if I was someone who had been in a foreign land for a long time and suddenly heard my mother tongue spoken. It was familiar and affirming to me and very strengthening.

Maybe that is what the foreigners felt when they heard the Apostles speaking of the wonders of God in their own tongue while they were visiting Jerusalem…..I don’t know.

The language of abandonment to Jesus is rarely heard these days and if you ever have lived in a foreign country rarely hearing or getting the opportunity to communicate in your tongue, you know how lonely it can be.
