What if church wasn’t just a place to go but something we do?

Don’t forget to praise God for this new day because He didn’t forget to wake you up this morning!
Lamentations 3:22-23 It is of the Lord ‘s mercies that we are not consumed, because his compassions fail not.They are new every morning:great is thy faithfulness.
Psalm 5:3 My voice shalt thou hear in the morning, O Lord;in the morning will I direct my prayer unto thee, and will look up.
When Do We Need the Gift of Hope?

We do not need the light of hope when we are in a season of mountain top sunshine but we find that light and ray of hope when we are in a dark, rainy season of the valley.
Romans 8:24 For we are saved by hope:but hope that is seen is not hope:for what a man seeth, why doth he yet hope for? But if we hope for that we see not, then do we with patience wait for it.
A New Day

Our society often quotes “Thank God it is Friday” but let us respond with “Thank God for the new beginning of Monday”.
Psalm 118:24 This is the day which the Lord hath made;we will rejoice and be glad in it.
WALK WITH THE KING AND BE A BLESSING!
It’s Time to Declare Our Love
February 12, 2018 by Leave a Comment
At this time of the year lovers are selecting gifts to please their sweethearts and children are busy cutting out paper hearts to send to their friends.
In the midst of all the activity do not let us neglect to declare our love for the Lord by offering Him a spiritual Valentine. Beyond all our gifts or service there is one Valentine that would please Him more than anything else we might offer and that is our hearts. No, not paper ones but the real thing. For when we offer Him our hearts we give Him our all. Thats what Isaac Watts meant when he wrote this line to his hymn “When I survey the Wondrous Cross”.
“Were the whole realm of nature mine
That were a present far too small
Love so amazing, so divine
Demands my soul, my life, my all.”
1 John 4:10 “Herein is love, not that we loved God, but that He loved us and sent His Son to be a propitiation for our sins.”
How could we help but love Him? Yet there are many who do not return His love. This brought anguish to Francis of Assisi, when he thought of Calvary and realized so many refuse the Savior’s love. He was moved to travel the streets exclaiming “Love is not loved ! Love is not loved !” This is also the tragedy of 2013, for Love is still being despised and rejected by many. But millions do love and cherish Him. Our hearts are His. At a time when the world is searching for love in all the wrong places, let us declare His Love to the world by loving one another as He first loved us.
Challenge: 1 John 4:11 “Beloved if God so loved us, we ought also to love one another.
HAPPY ST. VALENTINE’S DAY
