Sometimes, You're Surprised

Jessie is on a whirlwind tour of some of the schools Blessing Hands supports. So, she has been in Thailand, heading to China. Pray for safe travels and a fruitful trip.

Sometimes you get surprised. Like, you don't expect what happened at Wednesday Night Bible Study.

Jim Jordan bought himself a few more times of being able to pick hymns to sing. He knows there is a ban on any song after 1800, and anything by Brian Wren is an immediate ejection from the class. He restrained himself and chose appropriate hymns for the first time in MONNNNNTHS.

We are going slowly thru John, looking for the disciple-making training lessons in it. Healing of the official's son.

Never noticed before, Jesus is in Cana when He heals the boy. 2nd miracle, both in Cana. What's up with that?

Somehow we ended up on Thomas Watson (or is it Thomas Brooks), old Puritan, saying "God can strike a straight blow with a crooked stick."

At the end of the evening, Drew said "I am just so encouraged." And we found that we all were, that it is all faith, that the Lord works through us. It's not just that the pressure is off for performance. It's that He can work real, effective change in our lives.
