the Spirit moving


 

That room is an incredible place.  When the Spirit of God is moving, there is nothing like it.  I have been in many of these, and I desire to experience and enjoy many more.


These have been in many locations too.  It is when God is working that lives are changes.  Often it is me that is changed.  Others are changed.  Why?  God knows what we need and is working in so many ways.


One of those places is even when I don’t understand the language.  I have been in numerous worship services in Cuba where the Spirit of God is moving big time.  You can just feel it.  You know He is working because you can feel it and see it.  I love my friends in Cuba and what God is doing there.  


In fact I will be back in Cuba in early December.  Would you consider helping with this mission trip?  Let me know if you would like to help.


Another place the Spirit moves is at our church, and so many other churches.  Yesterday was one of those days.  People left changed and challenged by God.  Just being with God and with other people of God is incredible, but when the Spirit of God moves so many great things are happening.


I was at a meeting last night and a song hit me that shares this reality.  The song is Spirit of the Living God by Meredith Andrews…


Spirit of the living God

Spirit of the living God

We only want to hear Your voice

We're hanging on every word…


'Cause when You speak, and when You move

When You do what only You can do

It changes us

It changes what we see and what we seek

When You come in the room

When You do what only You can do

It changes us

It changes what we see and what we seek

You're changing everything…


My prayer is that we will be changed by God.  I pray we will experience God and help others do the same.  The Spirit is moving and changing lives!


Romans 8:14  NASB  

For all who are being led by the Spirit of God, these are sons and daughters of God.


2 Corinthians 3:17  NASB  

Now the Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is 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
