perspective


Just some quotes.  As the day after the election arrives I am more convinced than ever that God is in control.  No, I don’t like all the results nor situations outside of my control.  We know that God is still God.


We know that God loves people, you and me and others.  We know that God has a plan to give hope where there is none.  We still know that you and me can be gracious tools of God’s peace for the people we encounter. 


Our perspective makes a difference.  Dig in for a few minutes on this quotes:


Philippians 4:7  NLT  

Then you will experience God’s peace, which exceeds anything we can understand. His peace will guard your hearts and minds as you live in Christ Jesus.


No matter what happens on November 8th, Jesus will still be King on November 9th. - Shane Pruitt 


Be faithful in small things because it is in them that your strength lies. - Mother Teresa


You were made by God and for God, and until you understand that, life will never make sense. - Rick Warren


God never made a promise that was too good to be true. - Dwight L. Moody


It's easy to have faith in yourself and have discipline when you're a winner, when you're number one. What you got to have is faith and discipline when you're not a winner. - Vince Lombardi 


2 Thessalonians 3:3  NLT  

But the Lord is faithful; he will strengthen you and guard you from the evil one.


Have a great Wednesday and lean on God!

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....
