have you met MO?

As we drove down the Pacific Coast Highway last Sunday evening the waves were awesome.  The east coast is so different from the west.  We stopped a few times just to take pictures and watch the waves crash against the rocks.  The momentum was incredible.

It is much like the momentum, or MO as i will call it, that we have when God speaks into our lives.  We get excited and run toward God and with Him.  Those are great moments that we want, long for and love.

Yet Satan is always trying to get our attention and to stop our momentum.  Think about it.

For people will love only themselves and their money. They will be boastful and proud, scoffing at God, disobedient to their parents, and ungrateful. They will consider nothing sacred. 3 They will be unloving and unforgiving; they will slander others and have no self-control. They will be cruel and hate what is good. 4 They will betray their friends, be reckless, be puffed up with pride, and love pleasure rather than God. 5 They will act religious, but they will reject the power that could make them godly. Stay away from people like that!

Those verses remind me that when we get our priorities out of order or take our focus off of God we miss His best and lots of blessing.  Plus, it will steal our momentum.  My prayer is that we will let God drive us, guide us and love on us making us grow closer to Him.

Have you met MO?  Have you felt the momentum and the excitement when you hear from and see God work?  I see it, know it and feel it now.  But I also see things trying to rip it away from me.

Do everything in your power to keep MO with you.  Seek God.  Watch Him work and let MO (momentum) lead you and others closer to Jesus.

I have told you these things so that you will be filled with my joy. Yes, your joy will overflow!

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....
