Sitting in the Indy airport waiting to head to Tulsa, OK for a weekend of teaching. The last 6 weeks of ministry have been amazing. Virtually everywhere I have gone, the passion for prayer and response to the teaching has been off the charts. I'm wondering if the financial crisis is finally beginning to have its good effect...that of turning people back to God. Instead of trusting in our IRA's and Wall Street, perhaps we're beginning to trust God.
I heard a good friend say recently that this economic crisis should not be looked at as a test, but a tool. Tests you just endure. Tools you use. "Lord, may this time of economic uncertainty be a tool in your hands to transform you people into a people of true and lasting faith.
