Do you vigil with your eyes open or shut? Do you listen to music - or keep your ears open? i've done all of these - here is one vigiller's thoughts on seeing results.
***********************************
When you take your place on the pavement do
you pray with your eyes open or watch the comings and goings of the clinic? I
used to like to keep my eyes shut because I didn’t want to look at the people
driving by wondering what I was doing. I
also like to stand as close to the clinic as possible so that they can see me.
Our signs we hold may be the sign that she is looking for.
When I do open my eyes occasionally I have
been blessed by seeing hearts change. This morning I saw a young couple drive
into the parking lot and linger for a while in the driveway. They weren’t
waiting to exit, they were hesitating and finally they pulled put of that
parking lot and drove away. I hope it was forever.
We don’t always get see the results of our
prayers but once and awhile God gives us a little glimpse. We also have to
understand that God works in wonderful ways. There could be a woman in crisis
at home that just changed her mind because of our prayers.
