Bummed Out

I've been kind of "bummed out" for the last couple of days.

Sunday night one of CF's most vulnerable people arrived in a tormented state which got worse after a few minutes. One of the other guys and I went back to him & tried to calm him down.
I could see the torment in his eyes and feel the fear in him when I put my hand on his chest.
I was struck by the feeling that I had nothing to offer - sure I could pray and see him get a little more peaceful but he left just as tormented as when he came in which really bothered me.

No one should be able to walk into a place where God's people are gathered in His name and leave as tormented as this guy did.

I wish I could have been like Jesus or Peter or John and just reached out my hand, said "be healed" & watched him walk away whole.

Where is that kind of power today?
How do we access it?
How do we use it without turning things into a circus?
How do we use it without becoming proud as individuals and a church?

I don't know the answer - I just know I'm tired of seeing all the hurting & tormented people out there.

Pondering

In response to the many (2) folk wondering where I have gone - I have been "pondering" many things (seems to me I remember a message about that).
Too jumbled & unclear to share yet but who knows maybe something interesting will surface.
Stay tuned.
