"The steps of a good man are ordered by the LORD: and he delights in his way." Psalms 37:24
While on my way to the Post Office at Saunders Station, I happened to notice a friend, whom I had recently had the privilege to meet, was standing in front of a building in the 1600 block of West Broad Street. My intention was to speak to him and see how he was doing. When we greeted one another, he invited me to come inside where he then introduced me to some of the individuals who had been so instrumental in helping him deepen his relationship with the Lord. The two people there at the time were Paul and Faith. They both welcomed me with the love of Jesus; and that love was further evidenced by their deep passion and commitment to the calling on their lives. I looked on the wall and saw a painting that was so captivating and serene. As I was staring so intently on the painting, Paul shared the story about the meaning and the artist. He exclaimed that I was standing in The River!
In my mind I began to reflect on a song which says these words:
There's a River of Life flowing out of me,
Makes the lame to walk and the blind to see,
Open prison doors, sets the captives free,
There's a River of Life flowing out of me.
Noteworthy to mention is this fact....as many times that I had visited the Post Office, I have never noticed this place! I immediately felt like I was at home; that God was ordering my steps and I wanted to be a part of what He is doing, for He is indeed using Deep Passion by way of The River to transform lives....all for His Glory!
