God at work?
The days are longer, but are still flying by. I love this time of year. Achooo!
The challenge was to spend a week trying to see God at work. So I started listing the big events: A friend informed us she had breast cancer; A couple wants to come back to church; Another one pulled farther away; A family asked for prayers through struggles; A Christian couple married; 2 people want to read the Bible in English, a la Let’s Start Talking style; An estimate of over $3000 to repair the car’s AC; A discouraged relative; News of a baptism; Sharing the Gospel with a new friend; A party for a Christian turning 50; A new job for an unemployed executive…
Is God at work? Is it really just a question of perspective, of how you look at Life? (Like a glass that’s half full or a half empty?) Is He intervening, working his will through life… Through us?
If He is, then I do not want to miss Him. To miss it would be tragic.

Faith tells me and encourages me that He IS at work in our lives. To believe otherwise would be very disheartening, to say the least.
The last two sentences remind me of another preacher we know!
