Doors Keep Opening

Last Thursday evening got together with Taylor & Steve. Prayed and counseled together, supporting our brother Taylor in some questions and issues he was facing. The next morning up early to drive into Cambridge to see Gary. (Lord, help me to ask the right questions) Then off to the Financial District of Boston to meet up with Josh. One burrito, some good fellowship & counseling together & back to Gloucester. Saturday morning back to Cambridge, encouraging some blessed young men to relish their wives, and then off to Maine. Some excellent down home hospitality from Steve & Cis. Gathered with a group at their home that evening and stayed overnight. A delight to see Steve & Cis' children Stevie and Hannah growing up in the Lord. (Johnny got in way after my bedtime)
Sunday morning a quick breakfast & down to Malden to meet up with the saints. M. T. shared on friendship with God & I gave a quick overview of the three phases of salvation- regeneration, sanctification, and glorification. Used a handout which i don't usually do but think the brethren found it helpful. Will try this again. Great hospitality from Dan & Julie. Sunday afternoon finally back home.
Monday morning off to a big hospital in Boston to sit with the parents of a young woman undergoing a hysterectomy. Tag teamed with Matt & family, and Candice from our group. Met a woman from Providence, who, with her husband have been house churching for over twenty years. Turns out they know a number of the people that I also know. We were all in the chapel praying when a black couple came in. We didn't want to disturb one another so we were being quiet. I ended up praying for them and they joined us. The man was a pastor from Nigeria. Both husband and wife prayed with fervor for Amy. God is at work.
