God Moves

I was moved and humbled two weeks ago as God showed His awesome power through leading people to give to Beyond Our Ability. Those gathered were challenged to give to match a pledge of $2,500 thereby making it a $5,000 gift. Before the end of the day, over $15,000 had been given toward Beyond Our Ability. It is so neat to see God's activity among His people. God's people rise to the occasion when the Holy Spirit of God challenges their hearts.

The Holy Spirit is issuing another challenge for us. In John 7:16, Jesus said, "My teaching is not mine, but His who sent me." Jesus was sent by the Father for a purpose. God has called us as His children to also live a "sent" life. We are here for a purpose. God wants to use you to be His hands and feet in this world. But we must be willing to let Him use us. Will you accept the challenge.
