She is over 60 years old and is a missionary here in Okahandja Namibia. This past Sunday she attended the service at which I was preaching on the topic "Attempting Great Things For God"
I drew attention to the following three things as one steps forward to attempt great things for God.
1. Rely Totally on the holy Spirit.
2. Don't be afraid of failure or success.
3. Don't be afraid of weakness.
At the close of the service this dear lady asked to speak to the congregation. She confessed to hiding behind the fact that she is 'old' and has not used her voice to really sing for the Lord. She then went on to sing the first stanza of Amazing Grace.. The presence of the Holy Spirit was palpable and eveybody was visibly moved at this lady's spontaneous and genuine response to God's propmpting.
It is awesome to see God at work through us.. I am humbled and so blessed.
