Lord of the University

Every morning when I walk out the door, I look out across our front yard. Between me and the university lies a church, above which towers a large wooden cross. Among all the blessings of having a house so close to campus, God has given me this cross as a daily reminder that Jesus is Lord over Virginia Tech. In this place where students devote their lives to so many things - academic achievement, excessive partying, and of course, a nationally-ranked football team - Jesus is Lord, commanding their obedience and offering them life. That's why I'm here - because Christ is here, calling students from every nation to give their lives to him. I'm just a partner with Jesus in calling people to see the cross as I see it, to experience it as I have experienced it. Thank you for praying with me that the Lord will be received at Virginia Tech.
