Rolling Out The Red Carpet

 

There are moments that defy logic and anything beyond natural doesn't sound logical, right?  Last night, our intent was to head into church for a strong session of prayer for healing.  Physical, mental, spiritual, communal, familial and pretty much anything you can imagine.  As we were turning into the parking lot, Kerry's phone went off.  It was our niece in Oregon.  Vintage's prayer team had prayed over her son prior to Christmas due to an unusual virus they found in his wrist...and he has healed since then.

She told us that she felt so alone and that she was under attack from all sides of her family.  She didn't feel like she had anyone to talk to but grabbed her phone.  It opened right to Kerry's phone number (strange as we haven't talked to her since Christmas.)  She knew that she needed to call.  After we explained where we were and that we were going directly in and adding her name to the prayer list, we were able to calm her sobbing down.

During our fast and prayer time at Vintage, we've been preparing ourselves for a stronger connection with the Lord.  Well, why wouldn't He use it?  Why wouldn't He show us intentionality?  If you are rolling out the red carpet, you are doing it with expectation.  Sometimes you don't think He will walk that carpet.  Stop thinking and keep praying.  Thank you Vintage Prayer Team for this moment of connection that I hope and know others will experience.
