Looking back at the course of the week, its amazing to see what the Lord has done.  I'm beginning to believe more and more (and continually be reminded) that God is transformer, healer, and lover of your soul.  Crazy things happen when we just repent and believe the Gospel!  Last week out at the Tenderloin we got to see a beautiful woman restored to God--when we met her she was angry at God, talking about the horrors of her past with hurt on her face--be transformed, you can see joy in her face and she's trusting in Jesus.  

Some of us were able to meet up with her yesterday at a doughnut shop at 9th and Irving and her entire demeanor is changed.  She is truly that "new creation" that the Bible talks about in 2 Corinthians 5:17--anyone in Christ is a new creation, the old has passed away, behold the new has come!   There is new life in Christ!
