Sunday's Coming

Good morning,

We pray you are well today. If you have a prayer need, please email us and we will pray with you.

LaVon bought a wall art this week and it says, “The Best Things in Life Aren't Things” as I sit and think on that, one question comes to mind, especially since I like gadgets and things, what is better than things? The answer that came to me is relationships. The relationship between a husband and wife, the relationship with our children and grand children, our parents and our dear friends, the ones back home and the ones we have met on this journey the past three years.

You all with your emails, phone calls, and finacial support make each day possible. Thank you may God bless you!

I have left out the most important relationship and that is our relationship with the Lord Jesus. The Bible says; Jesus looked at them and said, "With man this is impossible, but not with God; all things are possible with God." Nothing in this world is important, wealth or material things, until you have a personal relationship with Jesus.

Have a great day, love you, pass it on.

DL Moody was a great evangelist from Chicago. He went to England once and met a young man there that wanted to preach in his church. Moody agreed thinking that he would never see him again. To his dismay he recieved a letter that said the young man would be in his town shortly and wanted to take him up on the offer. Moody was going out of town that week and agreed to let the man preach, but he warned the deacons to be ready in case it was a real flop. When Moody returned from his business his wife informed him that revival had broken out in his church and that "he needed to be converted". The young man preached every night on the same text, John 3:16, speaking of the love of God, from his heart. Moody went and he said he was indeed converted. He said I used to preach the judgment side of the cross, now I focus on the grace side of the cross, I used to preach mainly on the wrath of God, now I preach, he said, on the love of God. His life and ministry were forever changed. We need to experience a renewal of the love of Christ in our lives; a relationship with Him.


What is prayer to you? Why do you pray? A new inspirational movie, "A Time for Prayer" is a wonderful reminder of the power of prayer, its significance, and our daily need for it. Click here to watch.
