This morning God spoke to me about one of our East Coast attendees. This person participated in the Daniel fast we did at the beginning of the year. Since then, I have seen a difference. I shared with this person what I’ve observed. In part this was the response…
“That’s awesome. I’m glad to know that there is a noticeable change. You are right that Daniel fast really brought me closer to God. Before that fast I just felt like I was kind of drifting & not really seeking God’s will… Sunday mornings have made me realize I need to get my butt in gear & seek God’s will for my life. The Holy Spirit has been constantly making me aware of what I need to be doing or what I don’t need to be doing… I want to show people that if God can do a work in me then he can do it in anybody!! I constantly want to challenge myself to be a better church member & not just a pew sitter. I can’t wait to finally become a member of East Coast!”
It is encouraging to hear how God is working in the individual. The Word of God is making a difference. God promises it (Isaiah 55:10-11). Sixteen months ago we launched. This Sunday we will have our first membership class. I’m excited to see what Christ is doing to build his church as we commit to the unique vision He has for us: “Building a bridge, bringing a voice”.
