My kids used to love watching the A-Team on a Saturday
evening. The leader of the group of ex-soldiers, kind of a troupe of Robin
Hoods, used to devise elaborate plans for defeating the bad guys. Every person
in the group had a job to do, and when the plan played out and the baddies were
defeated, (as they always were), the leader invariably said, with great
satisfaction and a broad smile (smiled despite his teeth clenching a fat
cigar): ‘I love it when a plan comes together.’
Cue the music. Many of us are humming it now…
There is a young mum looking for a Bible study where she can
take her pre-schoolers with her. Another young mum who is already going to a
Bible study, though her involvement is limited because of her pre-schooler’s
needs. Within that Bible study, there is an on-going prayer that the group
would be added to and led by God. Enter the lynch-pin, another young woman with
a calling to help families grow spiritually, delighted to be able to offer some
distractions for the children while the mums engage in worship, prayer and
study.
I sense God sitting back, probably without a stogie clenched
in his teeth, declaring, ‘I love it when a plan comes together.’
Cue the music. Something celebratory, joyful, bursting with
gratitude and love. Many of us will be humming something now.
Praise God!
