Be still and know that He is God. I completed my reading of The revelation. As I pondered over the coming, the battle, the rejection, the judgement I began to feel a deep sickening in the pit of my stomach. I pushed through the images of things I could not understand and saw the suffering of people. Plain and simple. The rejection of the human race with angry fist, reminds me of a time I thought of God not loving me. Me not being worthy. It comes from the message of longing for love in a loveless world and trying desperately to make sense of it all. It was only until I understood grace that I no longer sought the approval of others. I no longer "needed" their love to be complete. I was found complete with God. All others just failed me. I have learned that when you are not in agreement with God you are against Him. How can you show Love, If you don't know God's love? His love offers words of kindness not judgement, forgiveness not revenge, peace not anger, humility not pride and the list goes on and on.
I changed my thoughts by the end of the New Testament, for I need not to worry about the time or years of the events. For when I die of this earth, my soul will simply be with my Lord, my Savior. This is my Good News.

Daily Devotion
I have begun the reading of Revelation and have asked God to open my eyes to the understanding. Today's message from Chuck Swindoll was the last of the series on Jesus Christ The Greatest Life. How fitting it was on the promises of the coming of the Lord. Chuck's message reinforced with me to continue a sensible and godly life. I love the way he expanded on two simple words that can change the whole dynamics of a person's life. That's the way Christ works. Romans 12: 2 And do not be conformed to this world , but be transformed by the renewing of your mind , so that you may prove what the will of God is, that which is good and acceptable and perfect .
As I close out my 90 day reading of the New Testament it leave me hungry for more. Or shall I say thirsty, thirsty for the living water He offer us all. John 4:10 Jesus answered and said to her, "If you knew the gift of God , and who it is who says to you, 'Give Me a drink ,' you would have asked Him, and He would have given you living water ."

Sunday Sermon April 6th,2007
Pastor Jack's sermon #3 of 3 in the series of What God has given us. This week was about the Church Family. He truly loves us. Our Church truly loves each other. We share so many hurts and are not afraid to be vulnerable. We truly seek the lost. We are lovingly doing the Great Commission. I know God sends people to us one by one who are looking for a family. #2 was the daily direction and #1 was a Savior. 31 souls saved just on Easter weekend. 2 Testimonies in those three sermons from church members. What a great blessing. There is no answers in this world.... There are only real answers in the word of God. Free at last, Free at last....MLK said it best... and Christians live this dream. Join me.
