In Waffle House
The gals: Brenda Sue, the sweetest gal and cook (a gem) & Casey our server (another gem)... also trickling in: Jeff, a patron who drove back 8 miles after getting home to order hash browns w/cheese and Lynn, our server, Casey's husband. We could just sense we were led there and we made great friends with all four of em quickly when we suddenly broke out in song!
With tears and joy, we gathered in a circle and prayed together for our new family, shared struggles, more prayers, and promised to come back tomorrow night with more instruments and a full set.
Last night, WE MET JAMES. He was asking for money, but we told him to forget all that and join us in dancing to the music and harmonica. We were led to gather in a circle, hold hands, pray with him though he was inebriated and wanted two more bucks. Pray that James would be freed from addiction for He confesses Jesus but is trapped in his addiction.
Also pray for the unspoken things of the individual's we met at the waffle house tonight ! Pray for Brenda Sue's grandson headed to dangerous places soon, and Casey's little boy's healing, and a few things God know that I won't write here. Jesus loves all these folks so much. And He loves you too!!! He wants to use you to wrap your arms as His around the lost sheep, the hurting sheep, the wandered sheep...
Though we didn't go to the organized outreach at the "Objective Meetings" the Lord sent us to different highways and byways where He wanted to touch four souls in a very special and unique way. Joe said it tonight... We take Jesus and show people the Kingdom of God wherever we go.
We just used what we had in our hands... Joe and I- our voices and a table as a drum, Brian-his harmonica, and Jenni, a camera.
He guides us with His eyes... Whoever catches your eyes, it's because they've caught His. Be sensitive to what He puts on your heart to do in that moment!
The BEST DAY EVER!!!!!!!!
There is a video! I'll post when I can sort out how!!!! :)
