How do you describe liquid love when it flows through people in a room? How do you explain a love so palpable that people cry, shout, sing, clap and pray for one another? It is hard to describe because it is an experience words can’t capture, but maybe pictures can reveal a measure of it.

While in Houston we went from Galveston on the beach to Eastgate Ministries in a building set up like a home. The presence of God was in every meeting, every moment of this trip to Texas. Whether we were baptizing in a backyard pool or preaching from a public pulpit, the love of God flowed from us and to us.

We met new friends, we reconnected with old friends. It was a trip that will never be forgotten and hopefully will happen more often in the future. The Lord spoke to me a year ago and said “There is a TN/Texas connection.” Now I know about the Alamo and how TN sent help for that battle, that is why we in TN are called the Volunteer state, but this was going to be spiritual.

I saw in the spirit a path walked by many between TN and Texas, but didn’t understand it until this trip. The two states are meant to be joined together spiritually and I am seeing it happen with every trip I am able to take there.

One thing that has been said, is everything is bigger in Texas and I learned that is the truth. They love big, they give big, they serve big and they eat big. We went out to lunch and the deserts that were ordered were so big, our table of 8 could not finish them.

Friends, people are the treasure, they are the most valuable asset in the kingdom of God. May we never forget what is really valuable. God loves people and He commands us to love one another as well. Liquid love is healing deep wounds, so we can love again, for we need each other and together we need the Lord. Thank you Texas for a trip of a lifetime.
