The phone rings. Deb picks it up and after a few seconds tells me: "Our Family Store has been evacuated. There's a fire in the field behind our building. The fire company is on their way." So am I.
The short story- the field is all burned black, but it didn't touch our building. Well, "didn't touch," in that nothing burned. The fire definately touched our building in at least 3 places. But again, no damage. God is good. All the time!
This is just another "attempted hit" by The Enemy on our now wildly successful Family Store. He keeps trying, but God is covering for us. He has a plan for The Salvation Army in Bangor and that place is right in the middle of that plan.
The outcome of the most recent attempt before this fire, is still pending. But we trust God has it all covered. No real worries. However, I'm not ignorant of the fact that The Enemy is attacking and wants nothing less than to wipe that place off the map before we have the chance to change Bangor through its ministry (Family Store, Christmas Center and The PowerHouse Teen Center).
I know God listens to you guys (he promises that), so I ask for your prayers on our behalf. Not only that each attack by The Enemy fails miserably, but that we begin the process of renovations in the Teen Center soon. Changing Bangor through the Teen population can't start soon enough!
Thanks!
