Every day I am reminded by things, places, people...ect...how thankful I am to have the things I DO have. At the hospital I see the sick....I see people at their worse....and I thank the Lord for my healthy children...husband...I feel so blessed to have such a wonderful church. To be a part of so many things is a blessing too. To build relationships with others that REALLY care about you. That are not just fake or for show but who truly care about you in their heart. Who would do anything for you. The Lord has blessed me with some wonderful, loving, people and they came from OUR CHURCH! I am so excited, stressed, nervous, happy, pretty much MANY different emotions for all the changes right now at church. I was busy this morning like I'm sure many of your were...and I got a "little" stressed and I was letting it affect my mood so instead of being distant and not "there" I left in my free time and got a Starbucks and prayed about it. That really helped to go pray when things weren't going the way I wanted them to. It took that burden off my chest to give it to the Lord. I let people affect me, their actions, words, looks.....but I have to learn that God is the one I should focus on. We are there for him right!!!!! I love the new contemporary worship, I feel so free to praise him, to feel his presense. As Debbie Martin says"I just got the Jesus Bumps". Do you get that feeling when you sing, pray, ect....I love that feeling. When you hear a song that touches your heart or that relates to what you are going through. Like when we sang "Even if I fall" today. I love those lyrics. It's not just about singing along, it's about listening to what you are singing, the words to the Lord. Even if you don't like to sing you can just meditate on it! Even if I fall I'll rise again, cause you are my God, even if fall you lift me up! I mean that is amazing and so true! Here are some bible verses that spoke to me and I hope that they will mean something to you!
Psalm 105
1O give thanks to the Lord, call on his name, make known his deeds among the peoples. 2Sing to him, sing praises to him; tell of all his wonderful works. 3Glory in his holy name; let the hearts of those who seek the Lord rejoice. 4Seek the Lord and his strength; seek his presence continually. 5Remember the wonderful works he has done, his miracles, and the judgements he has uttered,
I hope everyone has a wonderful week!!!!!!!!!!!
