We have such a great unity in our group right now but there is also a little nervousness about space. Primarily, about places for people to set when they come to our home meeting.
We are concerned that a few people might not want to come back if they come to our study and there is no room for them to set. Brazilians are the most hospitable people on the planet. The Brazilians are beginning to express their concern. We have several people checking us out right now and several that are thinking about coming and many that are dying to invite friends. Last Sunday, Esperanza, Patty’s mother prayed that no more would come and that there would not be a need of some to set on the floor. The Lord answered and all the seats were full but that meant that some did not come. Have you ever prayed, “Lord, help them not to come to our church this Sunday”. Well, while we want more people to come we don’t want people to have a bad first impression of our service.
Truly, we don’t need to fear but rather believe that God knows we are in need of a location and that when it is right He will open the doors of Hope a little wider so more in the community can fit in.
Lord, give us patience to endure just a little longer!
