Storm warning this past weekend

This past weekend we had a winter storm warning in effect from FRI - SUN. I don't believe it was just about the weather either. Our church had a whole bunch of activities going on this whole weekend! I love that! But today I am wiped out -- I bet our whole staff is as well, plus the many volunteers that helped out! But...it was soooo good!

We had an area worship gathering where all the Vineyards in MN & WI come together and worship together, pray together, and learn from one another. What a great group of people God has called together to lead His church in these areas. I'm always blessed when I hang out with them! Plus, God shows up in big ways!

I was praying for a couple people the other night when I just had very clear pictures of what God wanted to say to them. To the one -- a girl; I shared with her what I thought God was saying and she just burst out in tears! A little later I asked her about it and she told me the whole story of what that word meant to her and her husband. It is so cool to be used by God to bless others. She was so amazed by God and that he cared enough to show her this stuff.

We also had our food shelf open. Because of the weather though we only had one family come. They received prayer and were really blessed by the prayer and the food. We took some bags of groceries over to a shop that sells second hand clothes and blessed their employees. They couldn't believe that someone would come out in this weather to share God's love with them. They loved it!

Then on SUN we had our two services and I watched as the church prayed for one another. It was so cool because you could actually see God moving amongst His people as they prayed. Some were crying, others hugging, and others were just enjoying His presence. One guy had come in off the street and told me later that he felt like God had wanted him there all weekend and that he couldn't get the name Vineyard out of his mind. So he came and said that he was overwhelmed by God's goodness.

There is so much more that God is doing and that He wants to do! Keep praying church! God is on the move -- and we get to be part of what He's doing!
Have a good one today!
