Sunday Ruminations (6-28-09)

28 06 2009

I am VERY excited to fly to St. Louis today.  My wife and kids have been gone for 2 weeks and I’ll reunite with them tonight.  I also get to see all my dads side of the family.  Gonna be a BLAST hangin’ in St. Louis with the crazy Maness family.  White Castle is in my future.  Couple of Cardinals games.  Fireworks under the Arch.  Gonna be a GREAT week.  Here are my Ruminations on today.

— 10 people stood up and confessed Jesus as their Savior today.  WOO HOO.  So awesome!

— Third service we had one young lady, a first time guest, who stood up ALL by herself and confessed Jesus as Lord.  No one else stood that service.  She was beaming after church.  LOVE IT!

— If only for the one!

—  WOW, first service was sparse.  Ended up being a good turnout today.  2nd service was VERY full.  Summer attendance is upon us.

— Today’s topic:  God is generous.

Here are some things I said today concerning God’s generosity:

— When we say “generous” in concerns to God, the furthest thing from His mind is money, possessions, status or health.

— It is freedom from sin, not financial gain that God is most concerned with.

—  It is victory and not valuables that God ultimately desires for us.

— God wants to do a work IN us before He ever wants to do a work FOR us.

— Sang a GREAT song written in 1225 today.  NO, not AT 12:25 but IN 1225…the year.  All Creatures Of Our God And King.  AWESOME hymn and the band rocked it out today.

—  I love coconut cake.  Talked about that today!  lol

— Ok, that’s all I got.  I’m tired and I can’t wait to go see my family.  Plane flies out tonight at 9:30 PM.

— I’ll see you all on the other side.

Following Christ,

Jeff
