Meeting in Alamo, TX

Well Last night we had time, I mean a real good time, well it was for me. J & I headed out to church service last night to a revival meeting at Corner Stone Baptist Church in Alamo, TX. Before I left I got to praying for revival inside of me, to start with me, for the message to be for me, I was being selfish, but then I prayed for the meeting in general. So as I am waiting for digiSal to come by my house, he never showed up, meeting starts at 7PM, so it takes about 20 minutes or so to get over there from Harlingen, TX. So I decide to call him his voicemail picks up, so I figured he must be in the shower, so I leave to go put gas at H-E-B so I can pay for the carwash also, just to rinse off my truck because it looked like a ranchers truck just full off dirt you couldn’t even see the color black anymore it was color dirt. Well I am taking for ever because there is one person in front of me, but I get it done as I am headed out to J’s house he calls me to ask where I’m at I told him right down the street, as I pull into his street I see him, I get reminded of my fog lights to be on, so I turn them on. We leave we have a good chit chat talk on the way over there, it is really important to be in that good spirit of revival you have to want it. We get there right as they are shaking hands which was perfect, we sat down with Bro. Bob Hawk missionary to México, in Durango he said it is about 600 miles into México. Bro. Bob Hawks’ son in law Bro. Arnold Woodard was our interim pastor at Grace Baptist Church, in Harlingen, TX when we were looking for someone to fill in the pastor position. We grew to love him & his family, & his preaching, well Bro. Woodard is going to move to México to help Bro. Bob Hawk in his ministry down there, our Pastor Bro. Mark Laiklam, from the Tar Heel state, North Carolina invited him to preach at our church whenever he is in Harlingen, he also told him to tell Bro. Woodard to stop by also to preach, its going to be good. Well the service starts with singing I can honestly say I don’t remember how many people sang different song then the Spanish choir also sang it was beautiful kept thinking to myself I need this to get closer to Jesus, I need it I love it, & it was just the singing service that got it going for me. Then the preaching of Bro. Robert Seltzer from North Carolina he is also my pastors pastor. We were at Bro. Roy Dale Kincaid’s church which is our pastors' father in law, so cool to be in the LORDS will. Well the preaching on Galatians 5 but when he got to a verse from Romans which really worked on my heart last night. Man I needed to be at that alter so bad. I have gotten my eyes off Jesus so bad, I had become bitter, when bitterness gets s hold of you Christian it is not pretty. I beg for your prayer on that for me. Service went on them some more singing & singing, it was like I didn’t want it to end, IMAGINE how we will be in heaven when it don’t stop, the praising & worship. But like the preacher said we will be judged by what we do here on Earth as a Christian as we tarry for the Lord Jesus to come back. The service finished we (men) were outside, talking of course, waiting on the women, hehe. When all of a sudden this man walks into our circle as we are talking, with his hands in the air he says he needs Jesus, you could tell he was drunk, but I am so glad Bro. Bob Hawk was there to lead him to Christ Jesus. This man sobered up when Bro. Bob told him God is not to made fun of. This man got down on his needs crying & rejoicing as he left wiping away his tears. At that time as we got down our knees to pray no one came out of the church, no one quenched the spirit, God just gave liberty for another soul to be saved, Amen. I originally thought this man wanted money, but we can’t push people away when they are searching for Christ, searching for help, even if they are drunk, Salvation is of the Lord, you just do your part, he said he would be in church today so lets meet him out there today. Let’s keep him in our prayers. His salvation s between God & him, but you know it felt good to see someone come to repentance like that so humble, sometimes we need to be humble, to come before the throne of Mercy, just humbly bow those knees, who cares what people think you just mind Jesus, & everything will be alright. Then we leave to fellowship at Whataburger in Weslaco, TX by then it is about 9:45 pm. We fellowship, of course I am taking pictures like crazy. I was thinking of Sis. Kelly Greene as I take pictures of her family, & how she would be able to see what is going on down here in the Rio Grande Valley with her family. There we are sitting at Whataburger surrounded by preachers, by missionaries, Christian Brothers & sisters we filled up the entire restaurant. I love fellowship, especially when the preachers & missionaries start telling stories of their ministries it is such a blessing. Then the occasional question to each other,” Do you know So & So?”, then they take off from there rejoicing with each others company in the faith of knowing someone they know. Fellowship continued till about 11:30 pm for us when I told J if he was ready. Oh yeah he broke his phone that is why he was running late as I picked him up, but I was running late also. Then I got home about 11:40pm, by the time I went to bed it was well over midnight which I go to bed anyway might as well be at church right, but I got up, came to work, & was so spiritually refreshed wanting so much more. Won’t you make your heart available to Christ; let him fill you with the Spirit, Amen. Till next time, Hang in there Christian HE is on the way, HE is the only way. Amen Glory to God
