Bono the Preacher

"A number of years ago, I met a wise man who changed my life.  In countless ways, large and small, I was always seeking the Lord's blessing.  I was saying, you know, I have a new song, look after it…  I have a family, please look after them…  I have this crazy idea…

And this wise man said: stop.

He said, stop asking God to bless what you're doing.

Get involved in what God is doing—because it's already blessed.

Well, God, as I said, is with the poor.  That, I believe, is what God is doing. 

And that is what He's calling us to do."

- Bono at the National Prayer Breakfast, Feb 2

Go read it. And watch Bono deliver a message more inspirational than 90% of our church pulpit sermons.

ps. And our JB/Singapore pix (and maybe video) is coming up. What a summer..
