Power of God

Hey folks, how's it going?
What a couple of busy days! I have been working on this promotional event my church host's called Hoops for Christ. It's a 3 on 3 basketball tournament. Originally it was scheduled for the first weekend in June. However due to some major cutbacks by our biggest sponsors and what seemed to be a huge lack of interest by our youth group, I too lacked the drive to put it together. God wouldn't let me lay it down though. We post-poned the tournament until August 6 and I spent a week at camp, finished school and got some spiritual replenishment. God put a finger in my back and said get going, so I slowly started getting things in order. The sponsors are committing and funds are becoming available to make this years tournament just as good if not better than last year. See God reminded me that last year I pretty much flew it alone on this venture, so people were probably just trying to give me room to fly with it again. I am really fired up now as God has laid it on one of our sponsors hearts to give more this year. Thank you Jesus for your power. The printing is done now and the postage is ready along with the mailing labels. Things are set to promote this event in a big way once again. See in 1 Peter 5:6 Peter tells us this, "So humble yourselves under the mighty power of God, and in His good time He will honor you." God humbles me on occassion, as He did with this. If we don't worry about how much we have to do and how much others aren't doing, but instead focus on what God wants, he promises to honor that. I want nothing more than to honor God! Through this event I am again seeing the power of God and the way He provides for us. Especially when we follow HIS will!
