Monday Ramblings

Good evening friends, I hope your weekend was great. We celebrated Big Heart Sunday at our church and what a great time it was. There were a few missing, but overall it went very well. During the evening service the Pastor preached from 1 Corinthians 13, and what a message it was! There were a lot of little things that were brought out that I never had heard before and by the grace of God I am going to try and apply them in my life. We all had a great time this weekend again working on the teens new building, glory to God we finally got it dried in enough to keep the elements out! Well today the Pastor and I went and visited with a memeber who has her granddad in the hospital and this granddad is like the only dad she ever knew, so she is very distraught at the moment and I ask that you would pray for her comfort during this time. Now lately it seems like I am in a fix as to what to write unto you friends and what to share with you as my feeble mind has tended to wander more in the past week than it has in a while. I have been sitting under some great preaching lately and have been going over in my mind at the deepness of the substance behind it. I guess it bothers me becasue of how well it comes out, and how I see it affecting peoples lives for God. Now there is nothing wrong with any of it of course, it is all very doctrinally sound, and Christ exalting. I guess what I have been meditating about is that I desire to be able to write unto you something that would be lasting in eternity for you to think about and for you to look unto a Holy God and that it would encourage you to know Him and serve Him. I am just so tired of shallowness and I want to see people get a deeper understanding of who God is, and the many things that He is doing in our lives. I desire to communicate that effectivly for His glory, and see great things done! I thank God for the little things to, so please don't get me wrong, I see God moving in my life and my families. I feel a closer drawing to Him through His Word, I desire to have a better prayer life, and I desire a life of true service to Him. I hope and pray dear friends that you can look to your lives and see where you might stand in the presence of a Holy God and see if what you are doing is according to His will or against it. I ask you friend to look at what you could be doing and forsake this world and get into the service of the Lord however you can! As the songwriter wrote...Oh I want to see Him, look upon His face. Friends I desire that you would get a burden to a grow into a deeper relationship with the Lord Jesus Christ and that He might have the preeminace in your life over all things!
