Motorcycle vs. Parked Car

After two weeks of managing a shelter and the volunteers associated with it, I thought I was going to be kicking back relaxing, studying for my bible studies and finishing any paper work concerning the shelter.
God had other plans. . . Yesterday there was a motorcycle vs. parked car accident in Modesto, the rider did not fair well in the accident. So far by the grace of God he is still alive today. For several hours yesterday I sat with the family and prayed for him to be stabilized. I was fortunate to be there. Helping the son who had never prayed before to lift up his voice to God for intervention(my word). His tear filled voice begged God for forgiveness and pleaded for his father's life. Wording the prayer for the wife of 28 years who was speechless and worried that life as she has known it had changed, was a blessing for me.
My prayer today, thank you God for placing me in Modesto to minister to the hurting people in this community. Father energize me to do your work your way today. Father let me bring Jesus to new places today.

In His Name,

Amen


Go make a difference today for God,

Buddy
