breakthru prayer

pastor frank has started a monthly book club, this month we will be reading ''breakthru prayer'' by jim cymbala. so today we saw a slide by the author on how prayer changed this heroin addicted man he knows, life. it was a wonderful testimony of gods grace. i think we were all touched. i cant wait till my book comes. it was jennas birthday so her friend baked this pistachio cake with whipped creme frosting and it was the largest cake i have seen there. wow..............karen who will be in charge of vbs got a hold of me to tell me she wants me to volunteer to be in charge of the service to the community part of it. i will be in charge of getting people that do outreach in the community to speak, so i said whatever i can do to help. the vbs is ''gods big backyard'' i am just so glad we will be having vbs, last year when rumour was we wouldnt be doing it, a few of us went into prayer, pleading with god to change that. the holy spirit brought to mind each family god had seriously helped thru this outreach. vbs is definetely gods heart................so praise god. pastor frank and donna have such a heart for unsaved people. they have such a heart for us. they want us to succeed, and they love the opportunity to be used by god.the timing is perfect, but isnt that gods way. they keep saying sometimes god allows all these things in your life that you cannot fix so you can lean more on him and watch him fix them. he is our source in everything. it is definetely a growing experience for me.....lisa is not back yet and man is it different without her to talk to. she did call to ask if i passed my test, as she has been praying all along. i hope she is having a wonderful time. our church is growing with new converts and i truly believe if you just do what god wants he will bring the people in. pastor frank said we will see more unsaved then saved. wow fertile ground................well the food pantry is alive and well and praying for a new spin...............whatever god wants.
