Silent Sunday

Searching For The Savior Saturday

I watched this video a while back. It's one of those that just kind of hit me between the eyes. It talks about us being responsible for what we have seen and heard. We all know what has been happening in Haiti and even in other parts of the world. The question was for me, "What I am I doing?" and "What has He asked of me?". Is it to give financially? Is it to pray? or even for some.....Is it to go and help with my hands? I know that Haiti is on the forefront of the news at this time but every lost and dying person is on the forefront of the news in Heaven. Think on this today. What is He asking of you and realize, we are responsible for what we have seen and heard.



Praying and Searching With You,

How to Get Back on the Wagon
It happens — you over-indulged over the holidays, missed a few workouts and now you feel like you've fallen off the weight-loss wagon. It's tempting to mentally slap yourself around, right? (Or head for the fridge.) Before you start, I want to remind you of something: Being hard on yourself is so 2009 — that's the Old You.
The New You knows how to deal with setbacks and get back on the wagon. And after all, there are no mistakes, just learning experiences. Weight loss is a process — it takes time. You will encounter small failures — everyone does — but every pound you gain can be lost.
And if you miss a workout, it's not the end of the world! Get to the gym the next day and continue to focus on your short-term goals. Just because you made bad choices today doesn't mean you can't start over tomorrow. New day? New beginning. And don't you forget it!

I read this somewhere this week and it made me stop and reflect on my "experience of faith". The more I read the more this has become my prayer.

God's plan is for us to have an experience of faith that becomes the air we breathe and the very lifeblood of who we are.

May this be the prayer for all of us.

Have a great day!

We hope, but do we believe?

So many times in my life the Lord has done truly miraculous things, and I am still amazed

Last weekend we attended the wedding of my nephew Kevin, the son of my sister-in-law, Patti. At the rehearsal dinner several of his friends of his took the opportunity to wish him and his fiancée, Olivia the best, and tell a few funny stories about him. However, besides the well wishes and stories each of his friends had something else to say about him, that isn’t said many times about a 26 year old. Each of them told of how he had been an example of a true Christian and how much he had impacted their walk with Christ. What a blessing to know that there are young people today glorifying Christ with their life. Olivia is also a strong Christian, she was raised in a loving Christian home and her Father is a Minister. Their desire now is to seek the Lord’s will in their new life together as a couple. What a blessing! This story could have turned out much differently but by the mercy and Grace of God it didn’t.

"For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. “ John 3:16

God at work……..

When Kevin was growing up his family were members of the Catholic Church, but that was it, they were just names on a membership list. They did not attend church and there was no evidence of God in their lives. Then the Lord began His work! Kevin played on a baseball team and guess what? One of the coaches was a Baptist Minister. “Friend Day” at his church rolled around and of course the Pastor took the opportunity to invite Kevin and his family. They went thinking it was a one time thing, and that it would please the Pastor who they saw every week at baseball games and practices……not so. Hearing the Word of God preached, was something none of them had experienced before and they continued to attend Church. Well, within 6 months Kevin, his sister and his Mother and Father had accepted Christ. You see the people of that Church and their Pastor were earnestly praying for Kevin and his family’s salvation. God had been hard at work. I still remember the joy I felt when I saw Kevin baptized, but also remember my disappointment because of my lack of Faith and Trust in the Lord in this situation. This became a “spiritual marker” in my life that I have looked back on many times to strengthen my Faith and Trust in the Lord.

God is at work and miracles are happening all around us everyday, because of His unending Love, Mercy and Grace. I will end this story here, but it really isn’t the end of the story. God continues to work miracles each day in my life and the life of my family. Watch and you too will see the Lord at work.

Now to the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the only God, be honor and glory for ever and ever. Amen. 1Timothy 1:17
