Transcend: Hope

Tonight was such an amazing night at the shelter. Just as every other time when something amazing happens, i didn't want to go - i felt like i had nothing to give and didn't really see the value in me going. I'm so glad that i went though. The whole night was busy with people sitting at the table i was at and allowing me to pray with them. There were a couple of highlights. One was when one of the guests told me that they want to start going to church. The second highlight was one of the guests who has a frostbitten toe (and may have to get it removed) that i got to pray with. We prayed for an opportunity for him to get off the street and to have a miracle to heal his foot. No less than 10 minutes later, one of staff came up to him and told him that as of tomorrow, he'll be able to get off the street and start living in a room at the shelter. Brethren, if you could have seen the look in his eyes - the look of joy and of hope - that i got to experience. He is most excited about being able to take a bath or shower. It's quite hard to hold down a job when you haven't had a shower for a few weeks. It's these simple things that i take for granted. Lord, thank You for answering prayers. I pray that you will continue to work in the lives of Lenny and Will. Lord will you overwhelm them with Your healing powers. Abba, please show them Your love. We love you Lord! All praises to You! Amen.
