I am so pumped about Saturday night!!! I can’t fall asleep at night. It consumes my thoughts. I am so convinced that God is going to do something incredible that I can’t think about anything else. I am hungry to see people come to accept Christ!
Then a thought occured to me: What if nobody shows? What if this thing is a big flop? You better not post this, because then you’ll really look stupid when nobody comes!
You know, it’s times like these that I’d really love to square off and pop the devil sqaure in the pie hole! I hate this feeling – and I know it is directly from the bowels of hell.
We have been faithful in our planning. Have we been perfect? Of course not! But we will learn from our mistakes and improve next year. The point is, at this stage, we have done what we know to do. And to the best of our collective abilities, we have done as God directed us to do. The pitch has left the pitcher’s fingertips. It’s in that space between the mound and the batter. There’s nothing else we can do. It’s all up to God at this point. Wait a minute – come to think of it – it’s been up to God all along!
What I know is this. God has something cool in store for those who are there Saturday night. We are going to exalt Jesus and present His message of hope and love. We are going to do the same thing for 100 people that we will do for 10,000 people – that’s because we will worship the God of this universe. As far as that goes, it’s an audience of 1.

I am soooo pumped too! The anticipation is gripping at my heart strings and may burst at any moment! I have that kind of butterfly feeling you get when you see the face of the person you are absolutely head over hills in love with! Today in my quiet time I was reading about Peter James and John ( 3 of Jesus’ 12 disciples). When God allowed them to have an inside look at extraordinary events that occured during His ministrty here on earth. The three of them got an inside look at the miracle of raising Jarius’ daughter from the dead, when He was transfigured and Moses and Elijah appeared and God spoke to them telling them to listen to what His son had to say cause he speaka da truth and after Jesus had been betrayed by Judas when he took the three to the garden of Gethsemane to pray. I believe God gives us all the opportunity to be drawn into His extraordinary when He sees our hearts are seeking to experience Him! That is exactly what I am expecting out of the rally, an extraordinary event that I am drawn into by Him because my heart is seeking, SEEKING HIM!!!!
