New attittude

It has been a great last two days. I had the privilege along with Boaz ministry to go to Miramichi this Saturday and pick up Jerry and bring him back to Fredericton. Jerry has spent the past two days at our house, and what a blessing it has been.

I will not go into the details of any of the conversations we have had over these past few hours together, but I can say that Jerry has a wonderful perspective on what God has taught him over these last few months. It has also been very evident that God has protected him from potentially damaging circumstances.

I have been reminded as we talked of how God has answered my prayers and the prayers of others for Jerry. If you ever wonder if prayer changes things, I can say with certainty that God has moved incredibly to help this young man.

If you have people in your life that you feel like giving up on, I want to say don't. I also believe that God wants us to not worry and stress over them either. I feel that we can best invest in their lives by lifting them before the King of Kings, the Lord of Lords, and the Redeemer of humanity.

I have noticed a new and humbler attitude in this young man. I am constantly reminded of the prodigal son, and the Father's heart. This prodigal has come home. It is time to celebrate because this son, is alive!!!
