Blessed to pray
Nick has been very patient in getting to know a neighbor of ours. He has been so open and ready to chat when this guy needs him to. I loved watching the Holy Spirit at work yesterday and using this amazing man I married to bless another. We were ready to head out on a prayer walk when this buddy from next door came knocking to chat. Celina and I acted busy to give him time to talk with Nick. At then end of the conversation he was pleading with Nick, and the two of us, to pray for a family that is very dear to him. So, we were blessed with the opportunity to usher this man with us into the presence of God. It was amazing to see his willingness to let us pray for his family and for him to actually ask us to pray for them. God is doing great things in his life and I can see layers falling away every day. What a blessing and honor it is when others (especially faint believers) ask us to pray for the people they care the most deeply about.

That is awesome. Praise God that you were there and available.
He is using you, and will continue to use you. You don't even know what He has in store ... but you know it'll be good.
