Simply The Spirit

Last night we had some surprise guests come and lead worship in our mid-week STRIVE youth service. There were only a handful of youth and a few of us "older people" in the service. These guys came with two acoustic guitars and a love for God. The Holy Spirit met us in a very tangible way. We could feel him as he moved about the room.

Normally, our Wednesday night service is a Bible Study led by Pastor Josh (PJ) and it runs from 6:00pm - 7:15pm. Last night, we were still praying and praising at 9:15pm. It was incredible!

Really excited about some things spoken over my boys, confirming what God has been speaking to their hearts. Gotta love it when the Spirit uses someone you don't even know, or have talked to, to confirm something that you have been praying about.

Strive Youth Ministries remains small in number, but I believe that the Holy spirit sparked something in their hearts last night that will escalate into something beyond our wildest dreams.

It's easy to fall into a rut of trying to program church growth. It's refreshing to remember that it is "Not by might, not by power, but, by My Spirit, says the Lord"
