My friends I have known for a long time came to church with me last night and they really liked it. They liked pastor a lot. Who wouldnt right? I have known them for several years and I have always had a burden for them.
They are about to relocate and get a fresh start on life. Exactly what pastor was talking about. My friend Sylvia kept saying how did he know??
They want to come back. You have to understand it was like pulling teeth to get Sam to church. He kept saying I dont like those kind of churches where they jump around Noel. Sylvia kept saying I love it I want to go. Finally yesterday he went to an interview and this is a job he really wants and he said you know what Im going to go and thank God for my new job. He hasnt heard back from yet. Thats FAITH!! He is as catholic as they get. I told him that was great. He was so touched by pastor saying take the blessing. He walked out of church last night and talked all the way home about all the things pastor said that gave him faith for his life. This is a couple I also met while I was backslid. IN YOUR FACE DEVIL!!!! I dont know if you can understand how much it means to me that I didnt meet these people in vain. God had a plan even when I tried to walk out on it. Even in my sin God was reaching for people like Michael, Sam and Sylvia. She was so touched we gave them a Bible. They wanted one for their mom and for themselves. They were so grateful. Sam tried so hard not to like our church, but he couldnt. He told me, Noel I liked that guy. Church was cool. This guy comes from a very harsh background and all he knows is ways of the streets. I only know some of his testimony and its crazy. I saw a need in their life a desperation if you will. Sylvia has confided in me how tired she is living her life the way they have for so long. They said now that they ran into me again and they have seen the change in me thats what they want for themselves. They said Noel look at you. You have a good life now. You are in church and look you are like a different person. We want a better life. we want out of the street life and party life we live. These people are going to make great soul winners. Please pray for Sam and Sylvia that God would manifest himself in a powerful way in their life and save their souls. They are awesome people that are hungry for God. I could tell you stories about them that would make you laugh and cry. Pastor I feel a fast coming on. My daughter during our morning prayers together on the way to school said help mommy to go on a fast. I didnt say anything because I knew it was God calling me to a fast. I just repeated after her. She is so funny, she prays the whole armor of God on us every day and for our jobs and her school. Every morning she says bless Pastor Hurst and Sis Hurst and Bishop Hurst and Bishop Sis Hurst (she always calls grandma Hurst "Bishop Sis Hurst".. lol) and Bro Nathaniel. In that order every day. Its so sweet that she never forgets Bro Nathaniel. Then its our family and our church family and dont try and skip that one friend. Shes the first to remind you. When its my turn I always say bless all the ministry and I might call out Pastor and Sis Hurst, but it touches me she calls each one out by name. Then of course at the end and Bless all the animals in the whole world. She is something so special to me, words could never describe. The love I have for this child is just beyond any love I could describe. She is always quick to tell me "Mommy I love you more than anything in the whole world except for Jesus, because thats what I tell her. My sweet blessing from heaven. If time could stand still while she was little. Please God come back for us before she turns into a teen. lol
