The past 2 weeks...

I've come to the conclusion, that 'making sure I write an entry every Friday' is not mandatory and in some way could partially be my flesh thinking that I must contribute something for the readers.... so I've taken a slight step back.

Concerning the events for the evening of March 2nd-
The LORD showed His powerful strength during the most difficult time, during an incident with a man named Ivan. Ivan is one of our guests, who had previously been somewhat of a disturbance/distraction for me while trying to share with the group.

It would be best to compare Ivan, to the account of 'Legion' in the Gospels. He was throwing his arms, cursing, spitting, and very threatening. He had this glazed look in his eyes, as if nobody were going to control him.

Approaching him, I had no choice but to FROG (Fully Rely On GOD) for this to go right. Long story short... Ivan ended up crying, asking for forgiveness, and asked if I'd pray with him to overcome his anger issues. That was truly the power of Jesus Christ!

As for tonight- Nothing visually supernatural happened.
We did have an extraordinarally abundance of volunteers come down tonight though. It worked out well, since we were down a few of our regular team members, but we still had an extra 4 or 5 on hand. I feel guilty because so many people want to help serve, when there's a dire need for one-on-one counseling, but we lack the manpower for such.

Can't wait to see what GOD has in store for next week!
