It is true when two or three gather in Jesus’s name, he is there. That is one of my favorite things about the Hartford Project. The presence of the Lord is there and its thick. Thick meaning, you cannot escape it, it is so readily available to those who seek it. The Hartford project is such a refreshing time for me. It reminds me how I should always be living my life, intentionally. THP stretches participants to get out of their comfort zones and talk to strangers in every moment. To proclaim the gospel of Jesus to all who need to hear. That is how I should be living my daily life… But often by selfishness gets in the way. I like to be in control and I have a certain schedule for my day. I will be intentional on the next week of Hartford project, I will do ministry then. However, that is not the Lord’s command. He calls believers to spread the gospel to the nations, 24/7. In our daily lives through every moment. What I learned through this week of THP is to be present. To be watchful in each moment to see where I could serve, pray and bless those around me. Let me just say the moments where I choose to be present in the presence of the Lord are LIFE CHANGING and ALWAYS WORTH IT. Yes, it can be uncomfortable and I tend to always make excuses but the times where I have pushed through and obeyed his promptings have been the best. I never regret them. One of the coolest things about the Lord is that he allows his kids to join in his mission of his Kingdom. He has a plan and it will get done but he CHOOSES to equip his children (all believers) to join him in the tasks if we are PRESENT! That is it, pretty simple and oh so life transforming! Our God is so intentional and will meet us where we are at and loves us enough to not keep us there. It starts with us, being present so that we can be aware of his presence. Then we are able to do his work. My charge to you is be intentional, be present so that you can experience the everlasting presence of the King. You will be forever changed, and it is SO WORTH IT.
