Totally Awesome Evening In Belpre. Ohio!! :)

I just came home from meeting at the gazebo in Belpre with many other Chrisitans from around the city. The Belpre mayor had asked every "congregation" in Belpre to walk certain streets surrounding their particular building to pray for the citizens on those streets. Nearly 80 of us from the Belpre C'of C' met at the building at 6PM tonight and walked about a mile in that area, praying individually for the city. We then all hopped in our cars and went to the Civitan Park in Belpre. There we were joined by others around the city to sing songs of praise and to pray for the city and our nation. :) The Baptist, the Nazarene, the Methodist, a congregational church, the Church of Christ and I am sure others were there. All of us together as one, in unity and it was NOT about us...but ALL about HIM!!!! Differences were ignored, doctrines were not discussed, negative comments were not made about the country or city.......we just sang praises and prayed to ONE God as ONE. It was sooooo neat to see so many come together as ONE for ONE purpose and that was to pray to God.....because it IS ALL ABOUT HIM!!!!! Our church has been stressing revival during the past month and tonight did this old heart good! More of this is needed to light some fires in our nation!!! I think this is what God intended when he asked us to be one and love each other. Sometimes I think we missed the boat! Just my thoughts for tonight!
