22 Days Redux
We just spent 22 days of prayer, I took a few days off of the blog as well.
So what next?
Listen.
The Thursday after the 22 Days I was walking my kids to class and one of their teachers grabbed me in a semi-panic. “We need 50 volunteers for next Friday’s School Fair. Do you think your church could help?”
“Yes.”
I got in the car on the way to the office and reality started to hit me…how in the world am I going to get 50 people at our church to volunteer on a Friday night that we already have a lock-in planned at a school that none of their kids go to? There’s no way this is going to happen.
So last Sunday at the start of the sermon, I just asked our church.
First, I got an email from a dear lady in our church that read thusly…
I am excited about WHBC’s opportunity to serve at the elementary school. Here we are praying for the direction in what God wants us to do (22 days of prayer) … and the door is wide open to step in and start serving a school in our community.
As of 8.30 this morning…we only need 8 more people.
A Spontaneous Beautiful Day.
Over the next week, we’re going to be gathering responses from folks to see what God revealed to them during the 22 days.

It is awesome that the teacher already knew you well enough to feel comfortable asking for help. And then the church stepping up and OUT. God is indeed on the move if we can just keep seeing with His eyes and in His ways. Way to follow.
VERY cool, God!!
As someone that has spent many hours volunteering at school and know how hard it usually is to get volunteers, this IS awesome!!!
