The WAC meeting scheduled for today has been changed. They will meet next Sunday, January 22, at 4:30PM.

Trusting God's plans

2012-01-09T11:37:00.001-05:00

It is so easy for us to say we trust God then make our own plans....plan our point-by-point outline or blueprint and ask God to bless it.

Although the reality is if we truly trust God, we do not get to make our outline. We don't get to make the plan...God does.

The only points we get to write down are the points, God gives to us.
We desire for God to be a Divine GPS...
we wish that He would give us the step-by-step directions and points to where we are going.

God does not work like that. God wants to lead us to Himself. Surrendering means giving up our plans and trusting God day-by-day, moment-by-moment.

Resolution Thought

2012-01-02T12:06:00.002-05:00

During this coming year, I will go nowhere I can't take Jesus Christ; I will say nothing I would not want Him to hear; I will do nothing I would not want Him to know about.

Occupy (live in) the book of Philippians this year.

Philippians 4:8,9

⁸ Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things. ⁹ Whatever you have learned or received or heard from me, or seen in me—put it into practice. And the God of peace will be with you.

In the huddle

2011-12-18T12:54:00.003-05:00

Lk. 2:16- And they came with haste, and found both Mary and Joseph, and the babe lying in the manger.

With College bowl season and NFL playoffs soon, it is prime time for football. Teams can spend all their time, sitting in the huddle, planning the next play, but if they never leave the huddle, they will only accumulate penalties. Teams have to GO and PLAY.

Similarly, the shepherds in Luke did not spend any time at all huddling and planning what was next, they simply went....they were in a hurry....they MADE HASTE. We as Christians need to go and make haste also.

We spend a lot of time talking and planning in the huddle, (which is a great place to be) but we need to get out of the huddle and make haste in the real world. We must impact people with Christ!
