Word.

Here are some of the words given Tuesday at Body Life for Soul Pardon:

From Kyle~
"This is a picture I received during worship Tuesday. It was all dark except for two guys, one had his shirt off and the other was leaning over him. The guy leaning over was giving him a tattoo, but he was using a homemade tattooing machine, it looke like it was stuck together with duct tape. He was not doing it the normal way either, he wasn't going slow and meticulous, but rather was scrawling upon him in Hebrew. The scripture that kept coming to mind was the one that says my name is tattooed upon your heart. As I was thinking about the picture I kept being drawn to his homemade tattooing machine. It reminded me of the early church and how it had been really raw and underground. And that as Christianity has become more and more mainstream we've tamed down Jesus until [we've perceive that] He is nothing more than witty sayings and zen stories. So this brought me to another word, we are called to be a generation of moles, like the mole people. When moles inhabit the land you may not see them, but you know they are there, because they leave ripples in the ground. Not in a bad way, where we are not seen, but we are to leave "ripples" in society."

From Calli~
"I feel like the Lord is calling us to battle. But we don't need to get prepared, we just need to have faith in Him bacause the battle is already won. We just need to declare it."
