I prayed a prayer very similar to that sitting on a church pew in February 1997. Within weeks my life was in full blown chaos that lasted about six months and became a roller coaster that continued for much of the next 10 years. one thing is clear…. when one surrenders all to God life becomes a magical mystery tour and takes twists and turns you could never have anticipated. You need a lot of faith and a few good friends to get through the tight squeezes. Sometimes it stretches you further than what you think you’re capable of. Then you return to prayer and communion and God speaks so clearly and intimately that you’re laughing and crying and wanting to shout and dance. And you know that God is moving in a big way and has you right where he wants you.
