GraceRiver "The Next Step"
We have no doubt that the Lord has said the next step for GraceRiver is prayer. Praying for God's presence (glory) among us, praying for others, praying for forgiveness all are a part of us becoming people of prayer. As we (Sheila and I) read this weeks assignment my heart was lifted. Having the Lord powerful among us is our heart's desire. Learning to see life from the Kingdom perspective, turning to prayer when we are "up against it" may be new patterns for many of us. However, if anything will set us apart, it must be His Presence. This whole Summer I am continuously asking for the move of the Lord. Nothing else will satisfy. Nothing!

Reading through Acts has stirred something within me. I see the boldness of the followers of Jesus and realize that their boldness is not personality driven but PRESENCE DRIVEN! They are not just people with big personalities, people who are naturally bold. These are people who live in the presence of the Lord and with that presence they are confident, strong, powerful. Spiritual presence is always the foundation for powerful people and powerful relationships. I keep praying for the Lord's presence to be big and real at GraceRiver. People of His Presence live in confidence and hope and their relationships are naturally powerful. We don't need big personalities to be powerful people, just HIs presence!
