It's Friday!

Friday...
What a wonderful day.

For most, it signifies the end of the work week.

Today will be followed by days off and time

to spend with family.
For me, Friday means "It's time to go to work."

We have "church" here at Rapha tomorrow night

so Friday is a day of preparation.

Worship music to select.

Finish up the message or teaching (if there is one)

Much prayer...

(Oh God....Oh God....Oh God....Oh God)

Friday is a day of anticipation also.

Expectant of what God might do tomorrow night.

I am a believer that if you go into a meeting w/ out

any expectations....

Then that is what you get....nothing.

I go to every meeting expecting God to show up...
Expecting God to touch, minister, reveal and restore.

I place myself to receive from Him.
To reveal to me anything that I need to deal with and then do so.

I love the meeting on Saturday night and consider it

as much for me as for the men here at Rapha.

I found a verse this morning during my quiet time that

really spoke about where I want to be in my relationship.

Psalm 17:15

"As for me, I will see Your face in righteousness"

"I shall be satisfied when I awake in Your likeness"

Wow!

Satisfaction comes when I awake not to my own

messed up, mumbled out image....

But to the image of Jesus.

Have you ever been to Atlanta, Georgia when they weren't working

on the interstate?

No!

They've been working on the Atlanta interstate ever since
Sherman marched through on the way to the sea.
Orange barrels everywhere.

Yellow flashing lights to let you know there is work in progress.

If you could peal back the veil that separates our natural world

from the spiritual world,

you'd see orange barrels and yellow flashing lights

all around me.
I am a work in progress.

My sole wish and desire is to simply cooperate

with the Holy Spirit

and allow Him to finish the work He's already started.

Like I said...
It's going to be a great day....
A great weekend....
A great life!

God on you.........
