Church Prayers Day 78

This must be a weekend for the best of the best! Our church family has been struggling with growing pains for the past year and a half. People are tired, fearful, resentful and anxious about what direction we are headed.

As mention previously, we held a special prayer service several weeks ago. I must admit that I was somewhat disappointed by the poor turn out. Less that 10 people attended, in my frustration I thought don`t people care and can`t they take the time to pray.

However as Pastor Amy delivered the best sermon that I`ve ever heard her deliver, I began to feel differently. She spoke with grace, authority and integrity all backed by scripture. The presents of the Holy Spirit in the church was powerful. Tears of joy, hope, gratitude and peace streamed down my face.

Amy lead the congregation in prayers that made my heart rejoice. As we sang Abba Father, and They`ll Know We are Christians, just as we did in our special prayer service with just 10 people, I realized that God hears all prayers no matter how many or how few are praying!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Isaiah 40:31 Those who wait on the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings like eagles, they shall run and not be weary, they shall walk and not faint.
