Mighty to Save

Hey all,
Y'know I think there are specific moments in each of our lives when God is urging us to do something and, if you really think about it, these are the most awesome times. I find myself praying at all times for lots of different people. That he breaks down strongholds, that he reveals himself in a mighty way.
I think one of the major things we need to remind ourselves of is that when we mess up, God will never put us up for Adoption. He stays there, and guides us through the rough times. He is the author of our salvation. So what is your story, and have you shared your story with anyone in awhile. Our culture is built around compromise. Compromise for the sake that we don't want to be looked at as different. In truth, ladies and gentleman, we are different. We should not be so quick to act and react ast he world does. We are to be an extension of our savior.
I think a great starting point is letting your light shine so bright that the whole world sees. Let God do the saving, just be the vessel that he has called you to be. Indeed, our God is mighty to save, and he will. It all begins with prayer (something that we saw very evident and powerful in Crossroads/GAPP last week. Go to God and talk to him about those who you are worried about, and let him do the rest. Trust that he will use you, because he will. Believe that!

May God Bless you and Heaven Smile on You!

When God Speaks!

Hey all,

So much drama on the news isn't it. As Pastor Mick illustrated in the conclusion of the, "Making him known" portion of our vision did youfind yourself thinking about what God is trying to say to you. You simply have to turn on the news to see what perilous times we are living in. The economy, undependable-- people in general--undependable. But isn't it awesome that you have the invitation by Our Great God to stand on the Solid Rock!

Situations as well as people can be a shifting as the sand on a seashore, but always remember we put our hope in the righteousness of our blessed savior. This last week Shelly and I had the opportunity to get away to Chicago for 3 days. This was the first vacation we had since our honeymoon almost a year ago, and it was just awesome to get away for a bit. This is one of my favorite places to go. To walk around the city, to stand at the edge of a pier and look out over Lake Michigan. Now I'm sure there are plenty of more beautiful sights, but for me this is one of my favorites. To behodl the majesty of God, and all the things he has created is a humbling sight.

As all the many dramas unfold in your life never lose sight that God is there. He is our provider and will walk along with you in those times distress. Never forget how Awesome our God is! Trust that no matter what the obstacle he will see you through to the end.

May God Bless you and Heaven smile on you!
