Well, it all started just after Valentine's Day on Friday night. Grant came down with it first. I should have known something was up by the size of his belly & the way he kept wandering around the house, rubbing it as if a genie was going to pop out! Although the genie stayed in the bottle, everything else came out soon enough. Within 24 hours, Allison went down with it, followed by BOTH of her parents, and Nicko was not far behind. Have I ever mentioned how difficult it can be to care for vomiting children when you are sick yourself?? Not fun. And even though it's been over a week, we're still wearing out the 1-2 punch of it all. Our bout was followed up with the fever, chills, congestion & killer headaches. We are just now seeing the light at the end of this tunnel!! Needless to say, the flu was terrible. But from what I keep gathering from the media, it's terrible everywhere this year. Lord help us all!
We had our 1st 'organized' Legacy prayer meeting on Saturday night. 12 adults, a guitar and some dessert ushered us right into the Throne Room! We had a delightful time in God's presence, and we are confident that He was pleased with our seeking Him for our nation, our city, and for Legacy Church. We are already looking forward to next month's time of prayer & fellowship.
One thing the Lord highlighted through our time of worship & prayer was His love. H
is love for us as individuals, His love for His Bride, and His love for lost & hurting people. A 'picture' was revealed of God taking a firebrand and branding Legacy with His love. It would be our identity ~ who we are as a Body within the greater Body of Christ, and within the local community. The Lord truly challenged us to allow His love to 'run through us like water', and that we would never hold blessings to ourselves, but keep them moving outward.
The excitement continues to mount as God continues to set things in place, all the while drawing us to Himself in absolute need of Him. But we don't just want to need Him, we want to want Him! Just because.
