Camp

This past week I was teaching up at PMBC which is a Bible Camp. The group I was teaching was a group of 36 kids between the age of 11-13 which is a bit of a hand full, but let me say this; God did some great things last week. The kids learned a ton of stuff and left on fire for God. Besides leading someone to Christ getting kids on fire for the Lord has to be one of the greatest feelings in the world. I pray that they would stay on fire for the Lord and serve Him with everything that they have. And thank you Lord for using me that way that you have.

A free Saturday?

As I sit here on the porch this Sat. morning I am thinking how I only have today and one more free Saturday until the end of September. So many things going on at the church, and with school and camp and then going away to men at the cross, www.menatthecross.org As we all get times in our live where we seem we don't have time to sit down, we have to remember to be still and listen for God. God is not always going to talk to us in a burning bush as He did with Moses. So take time and try to listen for God this day and every day.

Crying Out

I thought I would share this thought that I gave out this past Tuesday night at prayer meeting. In Psalm 69 David feels like the water is up to his neck, have you ever felt this way; things going on in life that have you feeling like you are sinking. We cry out to God for help but we then stop thinking that God is not listening to us, or something else and so we try to fix everything by ourselves. We look to other people that are having problems to fix our problems and we look to the things of the world to help, but they don't. We need to cry out to God the way David did, in vs. 3 it says this "I am WORN OUT calling for help; my throat is parched. My EYES FAIL looking for my God." Can we say that this is us, that we cry out to God and look for Him so much that we are worn out and that our eyes are failing. I think if we looked for God in this way we would find Him more and feel His presence in our lives more as well. How hard to cry out to God, are you worn out calling for God?

What do you think?

John 11:25-26 "Jesus said to her, "I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in me will live, even though he dies; and whoever lives and believes in me will never die. Do you believe this?" That is the question do you believe what Jesus said here. I don't mean accept what He said but believe it. To believe in this it means that your whole heart is into it, that you have no doubt about it, do you doubt in the reality of Jesus Christ and what He has said. IF you do believe in what Jesus says here those around you should know what you believe, do they? If one was to ask them who you where, what would they say. If you believe in what Jesus says, in what Jesus Christ did for you, should you not live it out so that others may see, so what is it, Do you believe this or what?

Men at the Cross

Hey men are you looking for something to do that can and may change your life and the way that you live, check out www.menatthecross.org. It is a great time, a bunch of men from the church are going to one in Sep. let me know if you want to go.

Thought for the Day

As I was reading today I read Deuteronomy 3:22 "Do not be afraid of them; the Lord your God himself will fight for you." What are 'them' well in the case of Joshua it was the kingdoms that he was going into, for us it can be anything. What are you up against in your life right now? Is it work, bills, family etc. the list can go on and on. Take the words of God and find rest in them this day, don't be afraid God himself will fight for you, who else would you want to be fighting for you?

More posting?

Well it has been some time since I put up a post. So I am going to try to post more and keep any and all up to date with what is going on at the church and with Noah. If I can do this over the summer I will be on my way to keeping this up to date. The church has now started a lunch program that is during the summer, it is for any one that is 18 and under. It is Tue. and Wed. 12- 1pm here at the church, the best part is that it is free. Also we have a new kitchen and nursery so if you have not seen it I guess that means you need to come by and check it out. Also this month of July we are inviting people to come out to church, you don't have to drag them through the door just invite them and pray about them, but make sure you come as well so that you can be here and see those that come through the door, you never know maybe it will be someone that you have not seen in awhile.
