You wouldn’t think this question would send your day spinning off into a gut wrenching soul search, but today that is exactly what it did. This morning I was at a friend’s office when he and two other dear brothers sat down with me. One of the men asked “what can I do for you?”

I will have to say that I’m still at a place that I’m not truly sure what I need these days. The Lord is moving so rapidly around me, but I do have needs. So what did I answer…”pray for me.” The Lord then used my friend to speak some deep truth into my life. I don’t remember the exact wording, but the jist of his statement was this: “I’m asking how I can walk with you, prayer is a given.”

Ouch! The Lord let that one resonate like a gong. As the day wore on the Lord impressed upon me that He is knitting people to me who will become integral in His provisions in my work. What He needs from me is to die to my need to create my own answers, solutions, etc… Before the day was over the Lord had me send an email to those who had been a part of the conversation this morning, listing out every need I have. Very transparent, very humbling…not easy to do, but as I took this step, I could feel the support beams of a pride stronghold in my life giving way.

Tonight we met with the Organic Group made up of high school and college students again. These young people are so great. They get the idea of getting closer to Jesus and letting Jesus touch others through us. These guys energize Mike and I.

Tomorrow I will be speaking with a man who is wanting to plant a work in South Carolina. It is my hope that God will open this door for us to walk along side of him.
