And it all becomes clear

That's a bold statement to start my day!!!
So last week I was in hospital from Sunday - Thursday.  Inconvenient seizures!  I feel rather distant from it now and a lot more rooted in my faith now too.  I have had so many people praying for me over the last week its kind of hard to not feel closer to God.  Through out it all I just kept being reminded, mainly by my daughter, that everything goes thru Gods hands first. Bless her.  What a kid she is:):)

So I went to a missions committee meeting last night at my church to share about my trip to Mexico and was approached after the meeting and asked to consider and pray about coming out on a Wednesday afternoon to be with the 'coffee time' group, mainly homeless people, poorest of the poor, similar to who I loved on in Mexico.  I am certainly going to pray about this.  I have no doubt that there is a HUGE need in that community and God loves all people NOT just those that live in houses and have jobs and spend money on Him.
Needless to say I am praying into it and if that's what He wants then so be it.
I will totally do it, taking me out of my comfort zone, He's good at doing that to me....probably all of us, I hardly think I'm a minority on that. 

So my Dad (Toronto Dad) is coming to visit Alex and I in a matter of days now and we are so very excited for numerous reasons.  God is at work in my family, on so many levels and He is doing some really wild things and it`s so cool.  Sometimes I am able to sit on the outside and watch it unfold which I think is truly a gift in itself.

I have started a group on facebook called, "Can I Pray for You?"  When I came back from Mexico that was one thing I told myself.  I would take prayer to a whole new level and actually it was prompted by my friend Judy asking me to pray for her.  It hit me like a train that now was the time.

In December I was praying and writing my prayer and I really felt God tell me that I would reach thousands for Him and I would know how and going to Mexico to fire up my prayer life I believe was just the beginning because up until that point I wouldn't pray out loud, even when I was alone and now.....bring it on!
So, if you are on facebook then send in your prayers, encouragements, requests, anything you need, God can use us to do it all. 

With that said, God bless your day and be in the centre of it.

Love,
Melanie
