Waiting on Our Knees
A Call for Springtown Prayer
In response to Saturday's Facebook announcement about the delay in the Sanctuary opening, many of you shared beautiful thoughts:
"When the struggles and disappointments are so keenly felt, there is always a large blessing with patience."
"God makes a way in the wilderness, speaks light into darkness and worlds into existence. His timing can be trusted. Anticipating God's mighty hand . . ."
"Just be patient . . . I know it is disappointing and there has (sic) been lots of hard work, but let's keep our perspective focused on Jesus."
"The devil is fighting hard, but we know who wins!"
In this spirit of faithfulness, we are calling on the Springtown Family to pray earnestly for two things:
1. Mighty miracles. Big miracles. Open doors that will allow us to proceed forward in the completion of our Sanctuary.
2. And even more important, pray that God will build up the Body of Christ at Springtown. May our focus always be on Him. May this temporary setback become a powerful catalyst with eternal impact in the Hands of our Mighty God.
