Our God is an awesome God
Our God is an awesome God. World Changers have only been working for two days and already it’s clear that He is doing something amazing in the city of Hannibal and in the lives of the participants.
Awesome stories of God’s hand at work flood World Changers every year. Summer Staff refer to these stories as “WOW” moments. We love hearing them and encourage students to share “WOW” moments with us. Right now we’d like to share a few “WOW” moments with you!
On Monday a group of participants in a 25 passenger bus got stuck on the road. After quoting Philippians 4:13–I can do all things through Christ who gives me the strength I need–they were able to push the bus back into operation!
A crew shared with us how one of its members was afraid of getting on the roof. She climbed up, worked for awhile, and then got back down. Fear set in again as she did not want to return to the roof. She mentioned how she went and evangelized to a nearby person before fearlessly and courageously returning to the shingling. She said, “I know why God let me be scared. He wanted me to talk to the person on the ground!”
Emily from the Cool Caulkers turned in another “WOW” moment. She told how three other members from her crew went with her to pass out World Changers booklets and how they invited three people to their devotions that are held at the worksites each day. She said, “I’m so happy we get to go out and talk to the people about our ministry and our love for God.”
God hasn’t just been at work in the community of Hannibal though. He’s been at work in the lives of the World Changers as well. At least three participants have given their lives to Christ and made Him their personal Lord and Savior this week. Truly, our God is an awesome God.
Keep praying that God reveals His awesome nature to us this week as World Changers serves Him and the people of the Hannibal area.
