Alright we yesterday I'm not sure what happened. I had anticipated on writing in the afternoon but it got away from me. So I thought I will just write after some friends that we were having over for dinner left. SO I sat down to write last night, looked at the clock in the corner on my laptop and it read 12:02. I missed Thursday, I let the day lead me rather than me making my priorities priority. When I saw the time I threw in the towel and went to bed. Today was looking very similar as I plan for a district event taking place tomorrow. This wouldn't be healthy, I need this time to pull myself away from the "work" and sit in silence while reading scripture so here I go....I'll be back.
As I sit here in blackdog, the hustle and bustle of the day beginning a long time ago continues as people come in and out. I have taken the time in the midst of all of this to finish 1 Samuel and read my Psalm for the day. In 1 Samuel I read how David went from 600 men to 200 men but because of his faith God gave him a victory. It was a big victory that day as he recovered the every last woman and child from his village that had been taken. Along with everything that was plundered.
I naturally look at the Sidedoor sunday nights. I think about how our group of people that come for prayer has been 12 at the most. I have not been discouraged, God doesn't need numbers he just need the faithful. I know what God can do and He continues to confirm that in my heart. If all of us in leadership of this service continue to faithfully trust God He will move in people's lives in the same fashion that he has moved in our hearts. It is only a few more weeks now.
As I prepare to go back to working on the district event the words from David continue to ring in my head...For you, God, have put my life back together - Psalm 4:8
