I volunteer Tuesdays and Thursdays at a Pregnancy Crisis Center that is sponsored by my church and other independent, fundamental Baptist churches in the area. www.assurancewomenscenter.org
Joyce, Diane and I went to the board meeting room to pray for certain requests and for the Center just before 11 o'clock. The phone rang twice when we were about to get started. Both calls were answered (yes, one was you Jo) and we settled down to pray. We spent an half hour fervently praying round table style for the few people on our list.
It was the 17 of July already and we hadn't had one client come in yet. We knew they were out there, just not coming to us.
So we prayed that God would send someone our way.
We finished praying at about 11:30 and went about the tasks that needed to be done for the day. Sorting clothes and throwing out-dated things away.
Then at 12:15 a client walks in!
She has a positive test and Joyce takes her back to the counseling room to talk.
She is 20, married and wants the baby she is carrying. She said her husband will be happy.
The best part is when Joyce asked if she wanted to have a personal relationship with Christ, her face lit up and she said yes!
Praise the Lord for answered pray!
"The effectual, fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much."
James 5:16b
