We've been having Middle School Night Out (MSNO) every 2nd Friday of the month for the past year. It's a time for our kids to have some of their middle school friends over for games and hanging out during the first hour, and Bible Study for the second hour. Tonight was our last one, and it was really inspiring. Tim shared the story of Peter walking on the water, which I have heard so many times but it was one of those nights when you sense God's Spirit making the scriptures alive. Tim then asked everyone to fan out around the house and take 5 minutes asking God where we were (in the boat? on the water? eyes on Jesus? struggling?) It was great to hear how God spoke to Nicholas (check out his blog), and Nathan shared how God led him to a passage out of Isaiah 41:10 which then he noticed Isaiah 42 which made him think of Job 42 and verse 5 which says "My ears had heard of you but now my eyes have seen you". Then Nicole shared how she just realized that this time on earth is just a short time of learning more about how to have a relationship with God to prepare us for the close and unbroken relationship we will have with Him later. All that from Peter walking on the water. Very cool. Well, I just wanted to share that. Blessings to all tonight!
