I woke up this morning thinking about Divine Intervention. I recently wrote an email with the following sentence: “…in celebration of this extravaganza of divine intervention…” referring to a good friend’s engagement to a wonderful and amazing woman of God.

Just returned from a worship gathering at State Road Church in Presque Isle; Our God is an Awesome God! In the middle of the prayer time, the Pastor broke from the status quo, and–lo, and behold!–resurrection power was released! Yes, I’m serious.
