Well it has been awhile since I wrote. I was off to school for one week in Stroudsburg, Penn (and a visit to NYC). For those of you who don't know I am currently taking Ministerial Classes through the FLAME (Fellowship of Leaders Acquiring Ministerial Education) through the Wesleyan Church. I had an awesome week (Shout out to ET and the FCW Crew!)
Upon returning home (and you know I was recharged and ready to go) We began Holy/Passion week with Crossroads/GAPP watching the movie, "The Passion of the Christ". What an awesome night as about 30 teens and a few adults came out to view this film. In a world that fills our teens heads and tries to occupy most of their time with AIM, MYSPACE, as well as all the daily drama at school, what an awesome time of prayer we had. Teens falling on their knees, pouring out their hearts after having seen vividly the suffering Jesus Christ went through. Ladies and Gentleman, THE TIME HAS COME FOR OUR TEENS TO TAKE A STAND FOR CHRIST! Whether or not you have teenagers is irrelevant we have a lot of them at our church, you need to be on your face praying for them.
John 1:1 illustrates this, "In the beginning was the Word and the Word was with God and the Word was God"~~ that is who our savior is. Be reminded of this, this week Holy/Passion week begain on Palm Sunday with many of the people welcoming Jesus into Jeruselem singing "Hosanna in the Highest", and laying Palm branches at his feet. Today (Thursday) and Tomorrow (what we know as Good Friday") the same crowd was yelling, "Crucify Him". but Praise God that SUNDAY he did for me, and for you, because he loves us so much HE ROSE! AGAIN! That is the heart of the story, the GLORY of his LOVE!
May the Grace of the Lord be with you all!
