Each and every weekend at Community we have a number of different people from different backgrounds, and all at different places in their spiritual journey. Now, just multiply those difference on Easter in the Stadium.

Sure, we’re praying for people to make decisions that day! We can’t wait to see people say YES to Jesus and fully surrender their lives to Him. However, that’s not the only thing we’ll see happen that day.

We may not even see some of these things because they happen on the inside, but here’s a bigger picture of what to be praying for:

• Hearts are softened toward Jesus.
• People decide to move from comfortable follower of Jesus to completely sold out.
• Some might think, for the first time, “the church isn’t that bad after all.”
• Children might beg their parents to come back next week.
• Men will decide it’s time to take a stand and quit wavering.
• Marriage fires could be rekindled.
• Relationships, recently broken, might be restored.

Hey, I don’t know all the ways God will use this day. It’s a lot of work, but it is so worth it. We will see some of the results that day. Other results may begin to show up in the weeks, months and even years to come.

Pray, plant seeds, water…repeat!
