Perry Noble speaking at WiBO

The notes below are from www.thewhiteboardsessions.com and a message shared there:

We must embrace the season of pain in our lives as God will work through it.  When we do that, we will see and experience the blessing of God.  We will see Jesus in a unique way.  Just like Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego, the furnace had to be seven times hotter before they could see Jesus.

CRITICISM

It comes.  It is just the way it is.  Surround yourself with people who love Jesus and love you, but love you enough to tell you the truth.  Listen to your coach and not the fat guy in the stands yelling at you.  Don't focus on what you don't have.  Focus on what you do have and what God is doing.

DEPRESSION

You must have FUN.  What do you do for fun?  When was the last time went on a date with your wife?  Build your FAMILY.  The church will turn its back on you but your family won't.  Take care of your family.  Check your FOCUS.  Psalm 46:10 - be still (cease striving) and know that I am God.  If you don't stay healthy, your church can't be healthy.  Not taking care of ourselves is disobedience to God.

You are getting ready to see Jesus.  That is why it is hot.

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....
