It says, revival is not something we generate through human effort or clever programs. Revival is God's work. But God works through through obedient people who position themselves for breakthrough. He works through people who pray. He works through people who become aware. He works through people who care. He works through people who tell. And he works through people who invite.

And if you track that whole story back, it started with this Sunday school teacher that just said, yes. Like, what? You think like you don't have an impact. Like, doesn't matter. Somebody else will do it. And sure, if if this Sunday school teacher had not done it, the Lord would send somebody. But but what what joy would he have, like, in heaven? Like, here am I I I went.
