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

why is it Good Friday?

  Holy Week is the time we focus on God and His gift of salvation.  We come to Friday.  The day we remember the cross, Jesus’ death and all God has done for you and me   Why do they call this day “Good Friday” because it doesn’t seems good?   Jesus was treated as a criminal.  He was beaten so much that He could not recognize Him.  His pain would have been too much for you or me to endure.  That is especially from Scripture I’ve read or as in the movie the  Passion of the Christ .   Yet it is a good day.  It is Good Friday because God had our good in His heart.  What Jesus did that day changed our forever direction. Here are some thoughts that come to me:   He is Redemption and Redeemer   He too our Pain and Punishment   He is our Righteousness and Reality   He is the Savior and Life   All of those happened from the cross.  It was meant for the worst lawbreakers.  It was not meant for a Savior who never broke a law.  It was lifted high so that onlookers could see the price Jesus.   Look

Day 8 in Cuba

We have just come off and incredible weekend, and it is day 8 of the mission trip in Cuba.  Thank you to all who have been praying for this trip, the mission team and the impact it will have on those we serve.   Please don’t stop praying. Last week Alex and I served with a mission team in the mountains of southern Cuba.  There were several challenges, but God gave us safety, provision and opportunity to serve some of the sweetest people I have ever met.  No running water… sporadic electricity generated by a small, logo dammed up river, no transportation other than animals, limited food sources and more.  These people love the Lord and sharing their faith with others. Over the weekend we made our way back to Havana.  On Friday our vehicle broke down leaving us on the side of the road for several hours.  We then boarded a bus and rode 14 hours.  We arrived safely and even got some rest. Sunday was so, so good.  We visited two partner churches.  In the morning we were with one church that
