Radically Happy

MIC Check

Today’s Most Important Challenge is…

• Letting go of myself
• So I can testify to Jesus
• In way that connects to others

Immanuel Approach Memo

Continued from Sabbatical

I am… underdressed.

I have stripped myself
Of the mantle of responsibility
In order to follow Him.

I look to Jesus.

He leads me out of the synagogue
Into a modern street.

The day is hot
I am more comfortable
And natural-looking
Without my heavy yoke robe

Jesus disappears

I start to panic
Then…

I listen for the spirit.

The Spirit says:

“Jesus is a foreigner
From a different time and place
The people of this city
Won’t recognize Him
Unless…”

I turn
I look at a glass skyscraper
And realize…

I reflect Him.

To be continued

Reflection

I feel…

• Sent
• Embodied
• Vulnerable
• Guided

Scripture

“Don’t let foreigners who commit themselves to the Lord say, ‘The Lord will never let me be part of his people.’ And don’t let the eunuchs say, ‘I’m a dried-up tree with no children and no future.’
For this is what the Lord says: I will bless those eunuchs who keep my Sabbath days holy and who choose to do what pleases me and commit their lives to me.”‭‭

Isaiah‬ ‭56‬:‭3‬-‭4‬ ‭NLT‬‬
