The van was packed, I wish you could have seen it

Today, I got to see God in action and watch others try to figure it out.

We have gathered quite a collection of clothes, sleeping bags and blankets in the foyer and I needed to get it all up to the Day Center. I had the youth who delivered on Thursday help to load the van, it was huge. I also put all the clothes that were in the food pantry in the van. It was even more packed. Finally, I put the clothes that had been in my car in the van. It was now packed. The back seats were down and it was filled almost up to the roof!!!

Chris and I went to the Center while it was open on Saturday. Right when I turned off the van, there were three homeless friends waiting to carry everything up the stairs. It took several trips and several helpers. Everyone we talked to were so thankful. It really felt weird to receive the thanks and I was very quick to point out that God was the one who was making all this possible.

I was able to introduce Chris to many of the homeless people we now know. That was cool.

When we left, one of the homeless people really went on and on about our church. I told her that we were just following God and we were very thankful to be helpful.

God is so good and it was plainly seen in the van full of stuff and the thankful people in the Center. Let's keep following God and see what will happen next.
