Day of Praise

Sa, Jan 5, 12th Day of Christmas, "Day of Praise"

"A good man brings good things out of the good stored up in his heart, and an evil man brings evil things out of the evil stored up in his heart. For the mouth speaks what the heart is full of." - Luke 6:45

So, this is how it unfolded.

God brought the good thing of His love out of the good stored up in His heart and poured it into Ted's heart.

Ted brought the good thing of God's love out of the good stored up in his heart and poured it into Joy's heart, inviting her to church.

Joy came to church and brought the good thing of God's love out of the good stored up in her heart and poured it into the heart of a new support group ministry at our church for parents who have children with Asperger's Syndrome.

And, last night, 63 parents I've never seen before showed up at our church (not counting the volunteer organizers and cooks) for the support group! There was a lot of pouring out of hearts.

It was really good. Amazing good.

So God's good heart, passed to Ted's heart, passed to Joy's heart, joined to other volunteers hearts, passed to 63 hearts, who will pass to other hearts.

God's love makes life really good.

Spread the love, friends, spread the love.
Praise God!
