GOoD Opportunities?

GOoD Opportunities?

You ever wonder when something is a good opportunity or a GOD opportuntiy?

These things can be puzzling in life unless God really puts His stamp on it…

I don’t know about you, but I would much rather Him make it easy on me by clearly identifying Himself in our decisions…

The Church had one of those just recently as we were trying to plan a good outreach opportunity in the community for the month of June when God really threw a curve ball into the mix to get us back on track…

Here is the short version: We were in the process of planning an outreach into the community that I could not get excited about at all… It seemed like we were trying to make something happen instead of just allowing God to guide our steps. It came time to make some committments and i just could not move forward - so I and the staff prayed - and God answered… (I don’t know why I get surprised when He does - b/c He always does…)

The ANSWER - We got a call from a woman who is organizing the (Already Successful) DelRay Music Festival… She asked if we were the church that did such a great job with the games for the kiddos at the Town of Potomac Centinial Parade Celebration (our last outreach - just three weeks ago!) We of course said that we were, and she proceeded to ask us to do the same thing on an even bigger level at the Music Festival… Go God, as it is estimated that there will be 1000s of families at this event on June 28th!!! (The same day that we were planning the outreach that I pulled the plug on…)

He always provides the right direction if we are open, check this out:

“If you want better insight and discernment… learn the importance of reverence for the Lord and of trusting Him. He shows how to distinguish right from wrong, how to find the right decision every time.” Pr. 2:5,9 (LB)

Needless to say - Get Ready for a GREAT Outreach come June 28th (Summer of Fun - Outreach that is…)

Thank God for making a good opportunity a GOoD Opportunity!

Go God!
