A Perfect Score!

Today marks my 300th post. What does that mean? Absolutely nothing. My brother has scored a couple of 300 games in bowling, however. Moving on.

We had a wonderful evening last night and saw God orchestrate some very cool connections with people. We have a prayer meeting each week and the couple who's home we go to don't have a ride to our church. Sometimes we take them, but it was time for them to reach out into their own community. There is a lady from our church who lives down the street from them so during the prayer meeting we decided to just walk down to her house. She was mowing her front lawn, which was perfect! She had already said a few months ago she would be happy to drive them to church. Last night we introduced them and it's going to happen.

I've been praying for all the children of this couple in different areas of their lives. Their youngest has fallen away because of a spiritual hurt. I've been praying that he would come back and start going to church again. Last night was the first time that he and his fiance actually came out into the kitchen and living room and talked with us. They allowed us to pray for them. His friend sat down by himself during our meeting and shared he decided to come back to the Lord. He just wasn't happy without Him. I know that this young man will be a great influence to the son and his fiance to get them back on track. We prayed for him as well. It was a great meeting. The two other children and their spouses weren't able to make it, and I think God planned it to give us the time and freedom we needed to minister to these other young people and visit the neighbor. God is so good!

Blessings on this beautiful Thursday!
