Make Your Move

We're making our move toward a new year, and there seems to be so much
before us. Lots of questions. Lots of opportunities. But we have some
huge choices.

I don't know or understand chess. Checkers is hard enough. But to be
in the game you gave to 'make your move' at some point. Where are you
going? Why that direction? What's my purpose?

No new questions. It's time for strategy, prayer and for God to give
us the next move. I want that. No, I have to have that. God is doing
much in me making me rethink church, leadership and life.

That means making my move is kind of scary. It's also an adventure.
Excited and scared at the same time.

My heart's desire, what I'm called to do is lead people to life
change for Jesus. Nothing is more fulfilling. Nothing is as thrilling.

So, are you ready to 'make your move'? The time is here.

Take a look: Isaiah 6, Philippians 2, Hebrews 1 & 12, Matthew 5, 1
John 4 & 5...

I prayed this prayer this week, thanks to Craig Groeschel from
Lifechurch.tv, "God, ruin me." Not an easy prayer. You better mean it.
No more lip service.

Make your move!

Matthew 6:33 - "Seek first God's kingdom and His righteousness. Then
all of His best will be added to you." (translation mine)

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....
