I want to know
I’m rarely content to take even the good things in life without questioning how they happen. I’m not talking the unexplainable miracles, but things that can be explained through human action.

In this case, since January 1st, 7 people have signed up for "God's Way GroupOpen in new Window.. It has also received 92 views since then, 8 just today. This is where the stats come in handy:

Since December 10:
176 views (422 overall total)
36 unique members averaging 5 views per.
20 nonmember views

More specifics:
44 views have come from members clicking on their Groups page
20 views from WdC’s Groups page
19 views from members clicking on their favorites
11 views from email (likely from invitations or group emails)
7 views from the group being highlighted in WdC’s main page.
The rest came from other people’s items such as forums and blogs.

I owe you all a debt of gratitude for linking the group. It’s grown so far beyond what I anticipated so far, and it wouldn’t have without your help.

What has impressed me even more, and has clarified God’s face for me is what everyone has revealed about God in their lives in all the group items as well as in the "Invalid ItemOpen in new Window. when they answer the question about why they want to join and their expectations. (Wow, is that a long sentence! 48 words, and according to Word, it’s grammatically correct!)

Still, though I can rationally explain the views, it doesn’t explain the interest, and the number of people signing up. I knew there was a need, but not like this.

That part is a God thing, and something I had and have no control of. Many have thanked me for creating the group, but all I did was follow God’s urging. All the gratitude belongs to him. I make no claim on it. I’m just as grateful for the group, because I have already grown closer to God from everyone else participating.

It also proves the verse I added at the top of the group: For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them. ~ Matthew 18:20 (KJV)
