Exciting Times

        The more and more I stay here I see that not only is it the place that God wants me to be, but it is the place that I want to be.  A little prayer and dream that I have always asked God for was to meet John Wimber in a dream or something.  I had no memory of John from when I grew up in the vineyard and I always wanted to meet him and just talk to him about what God did in the vineyard so many years ago.  That dream that I asked for has never come and I have never gotten to speak with John, but now I see that God is fulfilling the true desire behind my want.  He has put me here at the Causeway Coast Vineyard where I am seeing things that I would have imagined happened at Anaheim many years ago.  Just listening to how specific the prophetic words are that Allen Scott gives out to the congregation reminds me of all of the stories of how specific John Wimber's prophetic words were.  Also just from hearing Allen's message I can see that these are exciting times and it is a time where the church is about to step into something huge.  It is the lady at the well who is asking Jesus if He wanted a drink, but we need to see that it is us who should be asking Jesus for a drink because His drink is just waiting for us.  We need to be aware of what is being offered to us.  What is just waiting for us only if we would ask for it.  These are exciting times!!

my heart fills with joy when I read this... Jesus, transborde esse coração sedento e apaixonado com muito mas muito mais; além do que as próprias expectativas e anseios dele.
