Prayer and Action

excerpt of an email from Lindsey Stockwell, an FCA leader at Wayne State College:

Terah, I know I wasn't even at the meeting you had here at Wayne on
Wednesday; however, the small spark you made lit a fire through many
women's hearts. I have felt the weight of God's Spirit moving on me
about prayer for several months now, but haven't really known what to do with
it. Satan was challenging that movement with lies like, "You just
don't have the gift of prayer, wait for someone else to take up that
ministry." or "Don't worry, if you don't pray, someone else will." But God has
also been teaching me a lot about spiritual warfare and breaking the disagreements we've made with satan's lies.

In one day, the power of Christ changing our attitudes about our spiritual battles
and the use of prayer has caused many good things to happen. As a group of
women, we have been praying for so many things today. I had a one-on-one opportunity with a teammate tonight and I knew God was going to give me the chance to share my faith. With one phone call and a text message, I had and army of women supporting me with prayer during the hour I spent with that teammate. I am actually so glad I did not go with you on your prayer walk because of all the occurred because I walked inside and started a conversation with Haley. (this too I am sure was God's plan)

I'm so excited to hear what God is doing through student leaders at Wayne State who are willing to humble themselves in prayer, and follow through on what God is leading them to do. Way to go Lindsey!
