Surprised by Prayer
Shame on me for constantly being surprised by God's answer to prayer. In our small group last night, a few of us talked about how we had been praying for God to provide opportunities for us to share our faith at work, for Him to work in the hearts of those around us. I was probably the only one who was surprised that He has actually been answering those prayers. But of course He is working in their hearts! We forget that God loves and works with non-Christians just as much as with Christians. It's incredible to see His handiwork when they don't even know He's doing anything. My lesson for yesterday was to stop being surprised by what He does in answer to prayer and be expectant...ready. He is so amazingly, wonderfully, totally from beginning to end IN CHARGE!!!I love the respect the Angels get these days. I used to read so many articles about who has the best players, who looks good this season, who made good signings, etc. and the Angels would never even be mentioned. And now it seems to be Yankees, Red Sox, Angels in the A.L. Nice for a change.
It's Friday! After-school baseball today (PEARNK!) and then home to write Sunday's lesson. It's mostly in my head, I just need to get the particulars down.... James has been SO talkative lately. He has a LOT to say. We used to joke around when we were waiting (what seemed like forever) for him to say his first word. We figured that once he started talking, he'd never stop. Well, he hasn't stopped yet.
