Amazing Grace

My husband and I attended a meeting this Monday and Tuesday that was so powerful in our lives I wanted to share it with all of you.

The church we took back in June is a church plant and has beeen struggling financially for quite some time. Greg was asked to share a bit about our church at an annual meeting of baptist churches in wisconsin. We have been really praying about getting a furnace in our church as the old one is way to ineffecant to run this winter. We would probably would have had to close the dooors of the building do to the heating bill. When Greg was done talking and telling of our burden another man asked all the other churches to consider helping us. Well the Lord blessed beyond our comprehension. Needless to say our church will have a new furnace and be able to pay off all of our utility bills. My husband and I were so moved we were in tears of rejoicing to our amazing God. We went to this meeting to present our ministry but God in his amazing grace showed us more love and compassion than we could imagine. We were so encourage and so convicted. We are here to be his servants. He wants us to share his grace with others and stay true to him. So as we endeavour to see our church grow and for souls to be saved we know we can lean on him in every trial. He is so amazing and so gracious.

Sometimes in our prayer lives we pray and pray and pray. Being patient and waiting on God is sometimes the hardest part of being a Christian. If we are seeking His will He will answer and many times it is exceedingly abundant. I just wanted to share with all of you the amazing God we serve. He did answer our prayer and he answered it way beyond our comprehension!
