we are home from a powerful weekend of worshipping, listening and participating with God in what He wanted for us...a weekend full of gifts...
551. God's amazing provision for a place for this gathering to be held, He literally took the wheel off our truck on the highway way back in April so that we could meet the owner of the lake where we wished to hold the gathering.
552. the gift of lovely weather, even the storm felt like His blessings being poured out
553. the interaction of generations, blessing...releasing...loving one another
554. watching the team of leaders, interacting, waiting on the Lord, not pushing agendas...
555. the sweet spirit of love
556. sharing, interacting, waiting together
557. the young people responding, dancing, laughing, singing, praying together, and for one another
558. watching covenants be made
559. seeing the face of one who I knew should be there finally arriving
560. hearing the testimonies of lives changed by His grace
561. seeing grace poured out in my son as he took up the flag of fire and waved it with all his might
562. seeing my younger sons, dancing and participating in every session
563. watching my daughter dance and love Jesus with all her heart
564. listening to my husband lead with authority and clarity, covered by the other leaders, walking shoulder to shoulder with him
565. seeing my daughter and my niece (one caucasian, one native) playing and dancing together, not concerned about skin colour or racial differences, they just love one another
566. seeing the army of God advancing through worship and praise
567. sweet moments of grace as one prays for another,
568. encouraging words offered
569. sunburned noses lifted to the Son
570. someone else running an errand so my husband could play with his kids
571. a young lady taking my little girl to play so I could rest
572. our van, with enough room to sleep - not in a tent
573. matches from the neighbouring campsite
574. finally meeting people you've only heard about and finding out how wonderful they really are
575. leadership of young people, on fire for God, walking in their gifts.
576. spirit-led prayers of tiny hearts led by the spirit
577. offers of prayer, walking alongside, being there
578. phonecalls from friends including us in good news that they've been waiting for for so long
579. radiant brides bouncing with anticipation on their wedding day
580. handsome grooms with awestruck glances as they view their bride coming toward them
581. wonderful weddings filled with God's blessings
582. friends
583. family
584. family of God
585. being fully, spiritually awake enough to enjoy all of these gifts
586. to be able to fully contribute and participate because my spirit is awake!
587. the glimmer of a new song, being formed in my heart
so many good things this weekend, I can hardly contain it
