Ben Sanders. Good guy. He's basically lived out his entire life at ASU, literally. The dude was raised in the ASU nursery for goodness' sake. The man has been here a while. 25 of his 47 years of life have been spent trying to harvest some sort of revival here at ASU. This is what this guy had to say to us on Friday after worship on Hayden Lawn:

"In my 25 years of ministry here at ASU, I have never been so expectant of a great move of God. Aside from 25 years ago."

One word: Yowza.

Can you believe it? What a statement. I believe we are on the verge of something great here at Arizona State. I just can't wait until I see it. Whatever "it" is. A united body of Christ. A thousand worshippers of Yaweh on Hayden. A transformed campus. Yeah- "it" would most definitely be something along those lines. Yowza. I am scintillating with excitement. It is a good time to be alive.

True Strength.

"LORD , who may dwell in your sanctuary?
Who may live on your holy hill?

"He whose walk is blameless
and who does what is righteous,
who speaks the truth from his heart
and has no slander on his tongue,
who does his neighbor no wrong
and casts no slur on his fellowman,
who despises a vile man
but honors those who fear the LORD ,
who keeps his oath
even when it hurts,
who lends his money without usury
and does not accept a bribe against the innocent.

"He who does these things
will never be shaken. "

-David, Psalm 15

God, I want to be these things. Help me become the man You have always thought me to be.
