That's exactly what it feels like.
Today, it struck me (after getting out of the bathroom I had to pause from changing clothes and went to a spot where I cried and thanked Jesus repetitively) to realize how these specific prayers in the past are underway:
1. Prayer: My cousin ate Mitch and her family to be found by Christ and to know God for who He really is.
What's happening now:
All the kids in their household were sent to a kids bible camp of CCF and they plan to do this again. One of the teens wants to join Kids Church in teaching kids.
2. Prayer: Mocha to be delivered from her relationship with a same-sex friend
What's happening now:
They broke up last week. 6 months ago when we were relaxing in a resort Mocha said that if she will pray to God her prayer would be, "Lord if You think this relationship is not right, take it away. But let it come from her not me because I can't leave her." And in February of this year her partner got attracted to a young girl and began building relationship in the last two months with that young girl while she's still with Mocha.
3. Prayer: Lord save my family. Let them enjoy Your glory while they are still on earth.
What's happening now:
My youngest sister accepted Jesus Christ as her Lord and Savior last year.
My older sister was awestruck in January of this year when what Jesus did on the cross sunk in and she is slowly but steadily getting to know more about God.
My mom listens and participates in our discussions about God and I couldn't help but notice how she agrees with what's being taught in the church that we go to which was different from her church.
It is very, very difficult for me to honor my parents because of our dark past. But my perfect Father in heaven is enabling me, slowly but steadily, to honor my earthly parents. When I was in high school i would tell the people I know that I don't have a mom because of this hatred for her. A week ago I posted a picture of her that has her best angle in my facebook wall. People liked the picture. But beyond that picture where people cannot see was a startling reality that I love my mom and when before I was ashamed of her now I want to brag about her.
I am expectant, gleefully waiting to watch God bring supernatural levels of reconciliation in my family.
Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer.
-Romans 12:12
