Clay Lein, a successful electrical engineer, proclaimed he was an atheist. However, Clay started attending church at his wife’s request. Then he volunteered at a youth camp and was asked to pray aloud. Clay nervously decided to fake it as he tried to draw upon childhood memories from Sunday school and Vacation Bible School. But as he began to pray, the Holy Spirit took over. Words flowed from Clay’s lips as he prayed for each child. One girl was so deeply moved that she began to cry. She shared she was being abused and hadn’t been able to tell anybody until that moment.

Because your steadfast love is better than life, my lips will praise you.

Psalm 63:3

Clay said, “That’s when I think something clicked for me. God was relevant and He really wanted to do amazing things in my life.” Clay attended seminary and now serves as a minister at a church in Houston. The display sign outside the church reads: “Changing lives for God in Christ.”

God, the Creator of over 100 billion galaxies, has set you free from a life of mediocrity and insignificance. Thank Him for His amazing plans for you. Pray that America’s leaders also seek to fulfill His plan for their lives.
