I (Vanessa) was driving home after a bit of a crazy day today and had accidentally knocked my phone off of the passenger seat and onto the floor of my car. After pulling into my garage, I reached over to get it and my Bible app had opened with a verse covering the screen. “Give thanks to the Lord, call on His name; make known His doings among the people.” (1 Chronicles 16:8) Immediately my heart was overwhelmed with the thought of all God is doing right now. His movement can’t and shouldn’t be ignored.
I thought about a friend I met with for a few minutes this afternoon. She and her husband are adopting a beautiful baby boy that will be born any day. After a long wait, God has moved in hearts to place this little one in their care.
My heart lifted up a sweet friend who is battling cancer and headed for brain surgery next Monday. God has been writing the most immaculate love story through her life. My own life and lives of many have been moved to a deeper faith because of her.
God is at work mobilizing young people in Las Vegas as they have committed one day a week to personally mentor students at Mack Middle School. That’s why we named it the MAD Movement, we anticipate God’s activity in the lives of teens.
Evan will officially open another Club Christ youth center in Las Vegas this Saturday, where kids will learn to read, be mentored and most importantly be exposed to Jesus, many for the first time.
A family friend sent out their first prayer email asking for support as they feel called to start a church in Boston. They will be moving in January 2013 to plant a church in a community that hasn’t been properly introduced to the love of Jesus.
God is moving. There is so much power in making known His doings among the people.
I’d love to read the many stirrings of Jesus in your life. What is God doing around you?
