i'm part of a prayer group that meets once a month, praying for churches to embrace unity, compassion and service in our town. the faithful few i gather with really touch me. their dedication and commitment to pray and to receive answers to those prayers is beautiful and contagious. there's a power in prayer that is unlike anything else. i think it has to do with being with other pray-ers, and with surrendering ourselves together and our concerns to the Hearer. but mostly, i think it's because i long to see His response, feel His presence, hear His word, know His heart...
on saturday morning at our prayer time, we read from acts 2. i wonder what it must have been like to have waited for what was promised there in the upper room... when that overflow fell with such power, those gathered surely saw His response, certainly felt His presence, definitely heard His word, and truly knew His heart. maybe we need to gather more together and wait on Him more often. just like He said to...
thanks for letting me share.
and wonder with me, if you will...
