Seeing God’s Hand at Work

As I sat in the pew waiting for the service to begin, I was reviewing all the notes in my head in preparation before I shared later in the service.  I was selfishly praying that God would use my words to stir people’s hearts to join us in the work God was calling us to, in Haiti.  The service began with a hearty welcome and a time for greeting. As I stood to my feet, crossed the aisle and reached out my hand, I was met with a wonderfully broad smile and an enthusiastic lady’s voice,  “We want to support you! We want to support you monthly.  How can we begin to do that?”    I was dumbfounded.  I was shocked.  I was bewildered.  In that very second, I realized that God really doesn’t need me.  He has this.  He can do immeasurably more than we hope or imagine.  As I slipped back to my seat still numb, my faith being stretched, I sent word down the pew through my boys to my wife. . “You will never believe what God just did . . .”
