So where was I........................
Oh yeah!! This old man walked up to me as I continued to pray for our group. He ask me if he could pray for me. Pray for me??? But I am here for the teenagers. I am not expecting God to minister to me. This was the teenagers not me. But to be completely honest I was heart broken and bitter. I felt like the ministry God had let me be part of was going down in flames. Back to the story... This old man said a few words that would change my life and my calling. He said this "God sent me here to pray for you". I was like sure. I have heard that before. But then he went on, he said "I am here to pray for your ministry and your health and your specific calling". You now have my complete attention. Have you ever felt like someone had a window into your mind or soul. We this man named Angel was looking right into me. When he prayed for me he prayed about things only I knew. I hadn't even talked to Michelle about some of it. I mean he was pulling stuff out that I had deep in my heart. Scares left from years past. He prayed for a complete healing of my spirit. He also prayed for a completed healing of my calling and a renewing of my energy and love for the Lord. He prayed that I would be direct with my calling. Not to beat around the bush to serve God with everything I have.
So Angel prayed a few words that has totally changed my life. I went on this trip to minister to my youth and when the smoke cleared God had broken me and put me back together the way He wanted. It was a mind blowing experience. The God we serve has something planned for you wherever you are if you are willing to let the people (sometimes the people we are not comfortable with) around us minister to us.
