In the middle of the night...



God is always doing crazy things and last night was no exception. We started our twenty four seven prayer the other night and basically it breaks down that we all take some time out of the day which we spend in prayer and meditation. All four of us are on a night rotation where we each pray for an hour one after the other and last night was a crazy awesome night. God is beginning to teach us all crazy things and last night God began to show just some of the hurt and pain that is holding this city down there is so much bondage and hurt here and God wants to do so much its crazy. Last night was a night where God showed up and said oh by the way this is what is really happening here. It was nuts God is so amazing and his grace is so big that it can overcome the problems and hurts here. God is stirring in our hearts as a team I think the need to totally surrender ourselves to him and to allow him to lead every step and I mean quite literally every step we take here. God is so awesome and it makes me feel like David did when God told him what He was going to do for him kingdom. Its such a feeling of utter awe and being humbled because there is nothing any of us have done no check list we have followed, no right people we have kissed up to, no amount of money we have given that makes God want to bless us and work in this place, its his love for us and his mercy for us that makes it all happen. If that doesn't slice ya off a piece of humble pie you might want to go repent!
On a praise note God worked out the plumbing thing and we now have a tub in our bathroom hurray for tubs in the bathroom.
well I need to go do something else besides playing on the internet so I'm out.
peace
Matt

Sounds awesome - keep being expectant of what God is going to do... not because we've done anything to deserve it, but because His grace is enough.
