Amen

Dear Lord
Thank you so much for moving into our prayer room last week. It was awesome in ways I could never have imagined.
Thank you for working in so many people's lives last week, allowing them to pray, to come to you, to be loved by you and cared for. Thank you that people opened the hearts and minds to a new thing and met you in the middle of it.
Thank you that as a church we embraced prayer in a new way.
Thank you that people felt comfortable enough to use the room however they wished, thank you for those who painted, and scribbled, and sang and danced and were still. Thank you that the walls grew and groaned and spoke more and more as the week went on.
Thank you for the children, thank you for their innocence and their simple embracing of the space. Thank you especially for the two local kids who came in off the street and learnt that praying doesn't just mean 'hands together, eyes closed.'
Thank you that you were with me, that you gave me the energy to get up at 5.45am every morning. Thank you that you made it OK that we couldn't cover the night slots.
Thank you that I trusted you, thank you that you spoke to me in ways that I could hear. Thank you that people thanked me.
Lord God if we do this again, call more workers and teach me to delegate.
Lord please don't let this work be lost.
Thank you for being love, awesome big incomprehensible love.
Amen x
