Prayer Walk

We had our prayer walk this morning, and it was great. We had 2 new couples join us and we all headed off in different directions throughout the westside of Turlock. Some of the impressions we got were:

1. Things aren't always as they seem on the outside.

2. People are struggling to survive.

3. Given the proper balance of water, sun, pruning, soil turning, etc. plans will thrive and given the proper balance of care, people will too.

4. There have been failed attempts at revitalizing the westside in the past.

5. It reminded one person of where they grew up.

6. There's freedom in Christ. What does that mean?

7. There are businesses on the westside. People shouldn't have to travel as far as Stockton to find a job, they should be able to find one right there.

That's what I remember from our debriefing, though I think there were others. Today I've already taken out the rest of the backsplash and cleaned. Still need to reorganize and do lots of other things. I went to Tracy with Greg last night to see the beautiful 25000 square feet of sod he and his crew laid last week. Blessings to you on this gorgeous Saturday.
