Something phenomenal is taking place
amongst us in Honduras. Since the beginning of the year, Orlan has been
preaching, and his sermons hold everyone captive – for great lengths of time!
This is phenomenal considering Orlan has only been trained through Signs of
Love; he cannot read; he cannot hear with his ears. Orlan is an extraordinary
example of what it means to be anointed by God.
He diligently prepares for his sermons through praying and combing over
the stories in his various picture Bibles. He doesn’t focus on all he doesn’t
know – he simply thinks about what he knows, and then teaches that to others.
He thinks about our beloveds who he knows oh-so-well, and he fine-tunes his
sermons to speaking into their
problems. Orlan cannot hear with his ears, yet he hears with great acuity.
Signs of Love’s tagline is “Love can be
heard by all.” This meaning is unfolding
in Orlan in profound ways. We’re looking forward to our beloveds hearing like
Orlan, and doing things that surpass anything we’ve ever done. There’s freedom, great freedom in Jesus’ sole
requirement to feeding His sheep; Do you
love me? That’s all it takes for us to turn this world upside-down with His
love…we just gotta love Him…and then, feed His sheep.
