It Started Pouring; Heart of Gratitude

It started earlier on; It stared pouring and I now it is still pouring.

Thank you, thank you, thank you Papa.  Thank you Jesus.

That was what was pouring from my heart earlier during the day when I was walking along the corridors of Kenyatta National Hospital.

I had two patients that needed to be admitted and one can get frustrated trying to get things done at KNH.

So I was humbled that even though I have not worked there for long, God has given me favour and whoever I called or went to was helpful.

To me is is not my making but God's hand at work.  That's why I am saying thank you.  It started pouring and it continued.

Then earlier this evening,  I was teaching the children the bible like I usually do every Friday.  

But today's preacher didn't not show up and so I had to preach and give a memory verse all at the same time.

Well,  I did my thing and the way I do the memory verse usually is with actions.

But the best part about it is that I never think beforehand of what the actions will be.

The Holy Spirit just brings them to me as I start speaking.   I really enjoy it because it is new to me as it is new to the children.

So again it started pouring, that is something I say thank you Papa.

Even after the fellowship,  when Margaret said I am a very good teacher and I do it so well, it started pouring.  

Gratitude started pouring from my heart.

Just a few minutes ago,  I was talking to my son in the Lord ( Muchoki) - the one who left a few weeks ago to go volunteer with Mercy Ships in Madagascar.

Well, this morning he was the one preaching during their devotions in the ship.

I asked him how it went,  and he said he was a bit nervous but he managed to speak about the fig tree with leaves but no fruits of the Holy Spirit. 

I told him that one sentence has blessed me and would like to hear more. 

When he expounded it, I was in tears of joy and saying thank you to God that my son is already being used of God.  

God is really not a respector of persons.   He can use any availability vessel.   Thank you Papa.  Strike three and God is yet to do more.

My heart filled with gratitude.   I can't stop saying thank you.

For what He had done, I say thank you Papa.

For what He is doing,  I say thank you Papa.

For what He will do, I am more than grateful.   THANK YOU, THANK YOU,  THANK YOU PAPA.
