prayer request

By Johnny Angel

Dear friends,

Once again, I've found out about an answered prayer! This one is especially good to me! When I started college two years ago, I had all these plans to hang out with a friend from 4-H camp and go to church with him. But when I finally got up here, he had been kicked out of his home for staying out all the time and not holding down a job. He was also a college drop out at the time. I tried to help my friend, but I reached a point where I just had to turn him over to God and go on with my life. Since that time, God has lead me in ways and things that I never would have dreamed of. A few months ago, I shared with all of you how he had come begging for a place to stay. I had to turn him away because he needed to go back to his family. We all prayed for him. Now he is working at a Christian camp as a counselor, and his relationship with his family has been restored!!! A few days ago, I was reading the story of Joseph in the book of Genesis. Joseph went through a lot of bad stuff. But in the end, he praised God and said what people meant for evil, God meant for good. God was able to work through being sold into slavery, being thrown into prison, and being disowned by his brothers. In the end, Joseph was the most powerful ruler in Egypt except for Pharaoh. He was able to rescue his whole family from destruction. And he praised God for what happened. He was able to do this because he believed in prayer. I'm thankful that we can believe in prayer, also and see God at work!!!
