There's a girl. With a baby.
They need a home.
She's a good girl. Wants to finish school, go to college, provide for her child.
I mentor her.
God put you on my heart.
There is no room at the inn right now.
I want to help. It must not be me. We will pray.
"Lord, find a home. A godly woman, to love on this woman-child
and her baby.."
"Do you live in Holland? I used to date a woman that lives in Holland. She used to be a golf pro, now she has started a ministry."
Lord, You are here. We were talking about trick or treaters? This supplier, who stops in randomly to check inventory. On his way out, just making conversation....
"She isn't home very often. She is considering a room mate for the basement of her home. We're not dating any longer. She travels a lot."
Lord, You are here. I can think only of her. I have no idea why he is telling me all of this because he doesn't know our prayer, this woman-child's need for a home. My heart is pounding. There are God moments and there is God Present. You are here, in this moment.
"I have a friend. She mentors a young girl with a baby. They need a home. They need a home in Holland. They need a godly woman to love on them. It's not me. We've been praying, and now, on your way out the door, leaving your work day, you tell me about a woman you stopped dating a couple weeks ago in the middle of a conversation about trick or treaters last night." God is here. "I am with you..."
"Can I call her? What is her name?"
"I will call her. You pray."
Yes, we will pray. "Have a good weekend. Let me know if we can contact her."
"I will. You pray."
Lord Jesus, You are with me. In this moment. This is not head knowledge. My heart is aching. Ready to burst wide open. Lord, hear our prayer. Provide. Love. And a home, for a young girl chasing after You.
Psalm 37:3-5 Trust in the LORD and do good; Dwell in the land and cultivate faithfulness. Delight yourself in the LORD; And He will give you the desires of your heart. Commit your way to the LORD,
Trust also in Him, and He will do it.
