Sunday night was a night of great blessing. The pastor talked about prayer. When we pray, we must have faith and we must not have doubt. Doubt is from Satan. He asked us, how many times have we said something like, "we want the church to grow, but... or how often to we think that something is beyond hope or that the person would never accept Christ. I know that I pray for things, but in I mind I "know" it couldn't / wouldn't happen. I realized that I have a lot of doubt about things that I just can't see possible, humanly speaking. After being convicted during the service, my mind was spinning. The pastor wanted to close the service with a prayer meeting. He asked for volenteers to pray out loud. Several men volenteered and our little Jessica raised her hand.
Honestly, my first thought was what was she going to say. God reminded me that she was praying to him, so her grammer, correct speaking, too quiet (or any of my other thoughts) didn't matter. I was able to join in and concentrate on the other prayers being spoken before Jessica. When Jessica's turn came, she spoke with the voice of an angel. God was smiling huge as he listened to a small child approach his thone with her heart full of love for her Lord. I had tears running down my face (and I do now also) when I realized that I had nothing to prove to anyone. It was not about me. She has a very tender heart for Lord and I pray that I will not stand in the way of it because of my fears, pride or other sinful problems. Lord, thank you for letting me experience this moment when my baby entered your presence with her prayers.
After the service, my 2 girls joined the choir with me. They are both so excited to be in the choir. How wonderful to have my 2 girls singing beside me. |
