God has an interesting way of ministering to us sometimes...
Years ago someone came to our church with whom vun and I tried to build a relationship with. For reasons unknown to us at the time, they were gone as soon as they came.
Three years later, out of nowhere, God just dropped them back into our lives. And during the time they were away, God had been working on them.
Now, she in particular, is someone that plays a regular part in our week. Yesterday, at church, she noticed that there wasn't the regular "bounce" to my step, so, she e-mailed this morning and asked if there was anything she could pray for.
I didn't even know the bounce was missing. But after some time thinking about it God allowed me to share some stuff that, indeed, needed some prayer.
It's funny how, as a pastor, you often see yourself as the one who's there to minister to others...and then God drops people into your life who insist on caring for you...why, it's his way of saying, "just because I love you!"
