e-devotion notes

It is going to be a great week as we seek the Lord and let Him work in and through our lives.  The Community Fellowship enjoyed some great things and some new things this weekend.  Take a look at my blog for some of those notes and celebration...www.e-devotion.blogspot.com  
 
Here are some things that I ask you to pray for: Amber McDaniel's court appearance is tomorrow afternoon, and we ask that you plead with God for a miracle that she is released and can move with her parents and twin boys to move to Texas on Wednesday.  Wilbur Turner lives near our church and has been on a transplant like for a new liver.  As a veteran he got news today a possible liver is set for him.  Please pray for Wilbur and his family as they are excited and asking for his healing.
 
One of the things that I am most excited about is the series One Prayer that begins in just two weeks.  The Community Fellowship and House of Prayer Church are part of the 1,080 plus churches joining forces with this.  Further, we announced yesterday a possible link between House of Prayer and The Community.  Please pray for the leaders of both churches as we seek the Lord for direction.  This is where He is leading us, and it is so exciting...more notes to come.
 
I close with some verses that have hit us greatly since we began as a church and will help as both churches seek the Lord.
 
Isaiah 43:18-19 (nlt) --- But forget all that—it is nothing compared to what I am going to do.  For I am about to do something new.  See, I have already begun! Do you not see it?  I will make a pathway through the wilderness.  I will create rivers in the dry wasteland.
 
Tune in for more about "authentic community" and One Prayer later this week.  Happy Memorial Day!  Thanks to all of you who have served our nation in military who helped secure our freedom.

Have you heard of EDITH BURNS?

Edith Burns was a wonderful Christian who lived in San Antonio, Texas . She was the patient of a doctor by the name of Will Phillips. Dr. Phillips was a gentle doctor who saw patients as people. His favorite patient was Edith Burns.  One morning he went to his office with a heavy heart and it was because of Edith Burns.  When he walked into that waiting room, there sat Edith with her big black Bible in her lap earnestly talking to a young mother sitting beside her.  Edith Burns had a habit of introducing herself in this way: "Hello, my name is Edith Burns.  Do you believe in Easter?" Then she would explain the meaning of Easter, and many times people would be saved.  Dr. Phillips walked into that office and there he saw the head nurse, Beverly. Beverly had first met Edith when she was taking her blood pressure. Edith began by saying,"My name is Edith Burns. Do you believe in Easter?"  Beverly said, "Why yes I do."  Edith said, "Well, what do you ...

wash feet, sharing hope

  John 13:4-5,14 NLT  So he got up from the table, took off his robe, wrapped a towel around his waist, 5 and poured water into a basin. Then he began to wash the disciples’ feet, drying them with the towel he had around him… 14 And since I, your Lord and Teacher, have washed your feet, you ought to wash each other’s feet. Jesus set the example we follow.  He served.  He valued and gave value to others.  That is why we choose to serve. For 18 years our church has shared an outreach called back2school, and for 16 of those years we have chosen to give students brand new shoes and socks as well as washing their feet.  It is one of the most important parts of this event. Washing feet is a humbling experience where both the give and the receiver learn how to share some moments that might change their lives.  Jesus said we should do this.  See the verse above.  Follow His example, do what He did, and give far more than you will ever know....
