I can't fully explain how God moves in people's lives

We prayed for God to call many from the NEHBC to devote one Saturday, June 5, to swarm the mission and make a dent in the massive amount of work needed to fix up the place. God answered that prayer.

We also prayed for God to raise up a group of NEHBCers who would be driven to put in the many thankless, but necessary hours of physical labor necessary to get the job done. A labor of love for God and Houston to be sure, but long hard hours nonetheless. And God is answering that prayer also. We have a group of men and women putting in serious hours at the mission--giving their evenings, taking off half days from work, and taking off full days from work to do strenuous physical labor at the mission.

I can't explain how God takes people to a point in their lives where they will work like this for the Kingdom. It can't be understood or explained with human logic. It is the work of God in their lives. It is God putting His glory on display through their lives. Through their hard work, God is announcing to the community that He is moving again in and through the mission.

I am deeply grateful for those who are getting it done down at the mission.

By the way, tomorrow and next Saturday, 8am-5pm, come and go, work days down at the mission. If you have 2-3 hours, a half day, or a full day to serve, go on down to the mission and you will be put to work. We need you.
