The Real Kingdom of Heaven

So, we went on the van run again tonight.  And I want to write all about it, because I'm so excited and I want others to know and experience everything you learn and experience every time you do one of these van runs, but I know there is no way anyone reading this will understand.

You can nod your head and say, "wow, that's exciting" with a slightly genuine smile trying to understand why I'm so excited about homeless people.  Or you can say, "uhhh...that doesn't sound right." as I tell you how all the men and women I meet on the street are ten times more genuine, generous, caring, loving, thankful and kind than any given friend I have today(I still love you all). 

It would only frustrate me to try and explain it to you, and so all I'm going to tell you is this: Jacob, apply for a YWAM DTS.  University/College will worry about itself later.  Rebekah, do the same.  Holt, do the same.  Everyone else...DO THE SAME!!

The only way I can help you understand the wonderful men and women I met on the street tonight is that that is where I found the kingdom of heaven.  I got an idea for a documentary for when I get back.  I'm going to call it, "The Real Kingdom of Heaven".  All it will be is interactions with all these wonderful people that live on the streets of Toronto.  It will be a testament to them and their lives, and an example to every single christian on this earth.

Catch you all tomorrow.
