Andrew: Looking for Doves




Reaching Your World with Luis Palau show

Summary: Sherri came from a very difficult past. Her life certainly hadn't been a "walk in the park." As do a lot of people, Sherri had doubts and was skeptical that there was a god. God hadn't seemed to be present in her life before, why should she believe now? But then, Sherri's nephew invited her to his baptism at our church. Sherri decided she'd go, she'd give God one chance.  "Okay, Lord" she said aloud. "If you're real, then let me see a dove today - before my nephew's baptism."All day long Sherri kept looking to the sky - wondering if God would send her a dove. All day long, no dove came. That evening she drove to our church and walked inside, certain that there wasn't a God because she hadn't seen a dove. As she stepped into the foyer, she was overwhelmed. Pinned all around the foyer were paper doves! There were dozens of them! In that moment, Sherri knew that they were for her and she gave her heart and life to the Lord.Don't be afraid to ask God to reveal Himself to you. He wants to and He will. He may not respond in the exact way that you expect, but He will respond - in His time and in His way. Ask Him to reveal Himself, then have faith that He will.
