The Pool Has Filled Twice More

I was driving back from the community National Day of Prayer service and saw the Pool of Siloam (Springs) was full of water again. The odd thing, even though we've had quite a bit of rain lately, it hasn't rained in 2 days. Usually the pool is empty within 24 hours of the last day of rain. I wonder if God kept it there as a sign for the community prayer time.

There is another time it was full since my last post. The pool filled last Friday, a week ago, while we were there for Spring Singing. It's the first Spring Singing that had water and it was filling while we were there. The representation there was also cross-congregational even though I hadn't thought about it until now. This was also only 5 days after the Free Prayer booth. Better for God to gives us a sign after the festival as rain would not have been a welcome event. The pool was full 3 days the weekend following the festival, Friday through Sunday. Those are the same days the prayer booth was in operation the weekend before, like a mirror.

These two occurances represent documented observations number 6 and 7 in the last 12 months, 3 times in the second part of 2008 and 4 times 2009 so far.
