Point of View: Won't He Do It?<br />
Written by Raven Henderson<br />
POINT<br />
When God shows up and shows you who he really is, it is truly a mind-blowing<br />
experience. He will take you to places you've never dreamed and surround you with<br />
people you thought you didn't qualify to be around. I'll be transparent and tell you what<br />
God recently did for me. I was recently asked to sit on a panel for an organization of local<br />
ministers that wanted to know how they can be of service to people that have been<br />
<strong>released</strong> from prison. I assumed this would be an informal community event. When I<br />
was seated on the panel and introduced myself to those I was sitting next to that I realized<br />
what was going on. I immediately got nervous and started to sweat bullets. At this point I<br />
began to pray and use my program as a fan. They must have noticed because someone<br />
turned on the air conditioner. I was sitting between one of the directors and one of the<br />
chair persons that work for the same agency I work for. Also commissioners, lawyers and<br />
judges shared this same panel.<br />
OF<br />
You see the seat in which I sat should have been for the<br />
assistant regional director or regional director. I am a unit supervisor. Needless to say I<br />
no longer felt qualified to be at the event not to mention sit on the panel with all of this<br />
experience and qualification. But God. I began to pray. While praying, HE sent instant<br />
peace and immediately calmed my nerves. Even though I didn't have the qualifications<br />
they had, I was thankful for the qualifications I do have and the ones I will obtain in the<br />
future. I to will hold one of those positions once I complete the necessary requirements. I<br />
didn't wait to thank God for showing up. I thanked him right then and there and continued<br />
to thank HIM even after the event. It might not be a big deal to you, but it was huge for<br />
arrived and was handed a program, and wasn't paying much attention. It wasn't until I<br />
me. When God shows up and shows you who he really is, it is truly a mind-blowing<br />
experience. Won't he do it? Yes he will!<br />
Many Blessings,<br />
