I called our leadership to prayer today. After being asked to consider running for mayor of Kindersley, I sought God and the advice of others. I was confirmed in the abilities I have, but it was also affirmed that the timing was not right (both personally and for the church I serve).
I never want to presume that what I am doing now is good enough for tomorrow. When I seek after God, this is never a one-time thing. I do not want to be shallow or hollow.
So I have asked that people would pray for me for an enlarged vision. I have asked that we would pray for our church that we would have an enlarged vision. I have asked that we would pray!!
This morning a friend who is partnering in this prayer time wrote the following desire for the day: “for a clarity of vision in discerning the smell of the garment of God.”
What a great picture – exactly what I am after! May God’s fragrance this day so inspire us that the world will not be left the same!
Amen! (said with goosebumps)
