I meant to post last week but time got away from me. It's amazing how God is moving. And how is He moving? Through the power of prayer. I know I've been talking alot about prayer, but I have always felt called to intercede in different ways. I have learned over the years that prayer is the most powerful and amazing thing God has for us on this earth. No kidding. When we pray, He is in our midst. He hears. He breaks bondages. He opens doors. HE MOVES.
Recently, at a women's breakfast at our church I learned that a someone new to our church had a burden to pray, and goes to the church once a week and prays there. My heart jumped out of my chest at this news. Someone who knows the power. Someone who feels the same calling I do! I contacted her immediately, not wanting to just barge in to her time only to find out that she had been praying for someone to feel they should be praying with her. Amazing. We answered each other's prayers.
Today was the second day. I seemed to encounter obstacles left and right, but I got there. Wet hair. Eyes blurred from lack of sleep. But I was there. And she was there. And God was in our midst. In all the craziness of life, full of technology and distraction, I am confident that this is the best thing we can do with our time. It doesn't have to be at a church. It can be anywhere. But when God's children cry out to Him for real change. For a movement of His spirit, He is there, and He WILL answer. Oh what an amazing thing to be heard by the one who is in control and who loves us so desperately.
