I had a great opportunity today to speak to 100 or so basketball campers at Asbury University. Even more, this afternoon I have had the privilege of speaking with the parents of sixteen campers and share with them that their child responded to the Gospel message. Certainly we cannot know exactly what God is doing in the hearts and minds of these sixteen young men and women, but I have to believe that it pleases God anytime someone says “Yes!” to Jesus with child-like faith in front of their peers! Will you join me in praying for these campers and their families as many will be discussing today’s events in the coming hours.

Allow me to share with you one verse that kept coming to mind today as I was speaking with the campers…
Be alert and of sober mind. Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour. 1 Peter 4:8
As I have reflected on this verse today, I thought it might be good to remind myself of what this looks like. Perhaps we all could benefit from such a reminder? He who has ears let him hear…
