My kids attend the school that is a part of our church. Their school goes all the way through high school and accepts and places several foreign exchange students with families in the church each year. One of the students is from Latvia and when he arrived he was very uncomfortable in our loud and sometimes crazy church.
Yesterday he attended one of our training classes for our ministry teams and he asked his host mom if she thought that this was something he could take back to his country. Now if this isn't something that every single Jesus loving person on this planet dreams about, I don't know what is ...BUT it gets better!
Later that day he was playing football with some of the other boys and hurt his shoulder very badly. He told his host parents that he couldn't wait to get to church the next day so that he could go up for prayer and see God heal his shoulder just like he had seen all of the other people get healed. He said to her, "I will go up there for healing prayer, because you pray every time at church."
Of course God touched and healed his shoulder this morning and it was AMAZINGGGG! God is sooooo Good!
And to think I almost let my crabbiness from yesterday almost keep me from going to church this morning... I would have missed getting to see this boy who is going to touch a nation for Christ get touched by the Living God for the first time!
Note to self: Pride and Offense STINK!
