Dinner Party

The Lord is moving!!! Today, after church, I saw the woman that had prayed us into the yellow house. I went up to her and told her we were now living in it. She was elated and said, "Can I come over?" 
"Of course," we said.
"Like today, and can I bring a friend?" she says.
"Yes," we said, "but you'll have to bring your own chair, as we don't have enough yet."  
This made us very excited, as it is the most intentionality anyone has shown towards us thus far. So, we told her to come over for dinner. We also invited another woman that we are getting intentional with. 
At dinner time they both showed up and it turned out the other woman we invited was the same one that "yellow house woman" was going to invite! When we were sitting on the porch, one of the neighbors walked by and we invited her to join us. So, we ended up with an impromptu dinner party and had amazing fellowship! It was a total God appointment. We talked about all sorts of things, including who the Lord says we are and what's going on in our lives. We are destined to be a family. 

We found out it is one of the ladies birthdays on Thursday, and her being new to town, knew it was our job (her new family) to throw her a party. So, on Thursday, we're having a party. I have no doubt it will be a packed house. We're praying that God blesses us with chairs before then, otherwise it will be a BYOC (bring your own chair) party. Haha. I believe He will. 

It was a great night. More and more is being revealed to us about why we are here. It is definitely to prepare the way, as we can see the Lord about to break loose here in this neighborhood. Also, we can see the equipping and training being very helpful.

I'll keep you updated, as I am expecting great things!
