God Sighting

God sighting!! I was watching the firefly finale at the VBS that my girls are going to and I was touched by God today. Everyone sang "Amazing Love" while crew leaders draped garbage bags (representing sin) over a cross that was lit by purple lights, covering all of the light. Then "Jesus" came and removed each bag and draped them on himself and just stood there with his arms open wide while everyone continued to sing. I sat in the back of the sanctuary and watched 125 kids and the staff (at least 20 staff members), and I was just overwhelmed with emotion. I wanted to be a part of it; a part of something so amazing that touched the lives of so many kids. It made me think of my church. We are in a slump right now, our average kid count is six. It is my deep desire to see our church swamped (VBS theme- Crocodile Dock) with kids, and I want to be a part of God's plan to touch each one of their lives. That sanctuary (at Riverwood community church, VBS) has been filled, each day this week, with well over a 100 souls praising God. I saw parents with tears in their eyes, myself included, how could you not. It is my prayer, God, that you bless my church. Enlarge it's territory; give us the desire and the opportunity to touch the lives of at least as many kids as Riverwood Community church did this week. Then keep your hand over us and protect up from evil. Help our church to grow. In Jesus' name, Amen.
