God's Providence

Wow! Today has been a great day.

It started out rough...with hardly having any sleep. Then there was the typical Sunday morning fighting with the children...which I fully recognize it as a Satan attack.

But once we were at church, there were two separate neighbors who were there. One of them has come off and on and he has shared with Jeff that he believes in God but he wasn't sure how the whole Jesus thing fit into things and if it was even true. We started a small group in our home a couple of weeks ago and this neighbor has been coming.

Then there is our other neighbor. She has absolutely no church background. Her daughter plays with our kids and I've been over there a couple of times for different activities for our kids. A month or so ago, she came over to use our phone to report some abuse. One thing lead to another and Jeff ended up talking to her about church and he gave her the church's card. She showed up, by herself, and I could see the fear and desperation in her eyes.

Every Sunday, at every service Jeff gives two invitations. One to make changes in whatever area the sermon was talking about the second is the invitation to make the decision to follow Christ. BOTH of our neighbors raised their hands to follow Christ!

This is destiny...this is providence...we were placed in this house, in this cul-de-sac for such a time as this!
