Monday Morning Review

Last nights sermon take away:

John 5:39-40

³⁹ You search the Scriptures, for in them you think you have eternal life; and these are they which testify of Me. ⁴⁰ But you are not willing to come to Me that you may have life.

The Pharisees could not accept who Jesus was claiming to be even though they had spent a lifetime reading and studying the scriptures and knew that it was Gods plan to send a savior into the world.

I am convinced that God is also showing up in all of our lives regularly, but that we too are often missing Him. Why?  Because we, just like the Pharisees, are focused on what "we" expect God to do, or to be. We are still living by sight and by experience and think we know the truth of our situations.
Never accept the truth of a situation until God has spoken. Only then can we proceed with confidence the we are acting in Gods will.

The key word is surrender,  reaching a point in your relationship with God that you can completely trust Him with every aspect of your life.  A point when you will be able to clearly recognize His voice and His promptings and are willing to surrender all of your will, wants, and desires to His plans even if they seem impossible.  

When you get tired of swimming up stream, and there is no where else to turn, try surrendering to Him. Because as Jesus taught us, He is the Way, The Truth and The Life.  If you want an exciting and fulfilling life, try God!

TONIGHT  at GLIK PARK 6:30 PM :  Everyone is invited to a gathering and prayer meeting put together by Jennifer Kaburik to seek Gods blessing and guidance for RTP ministry this season.  All are welcome.

Stay tuned for much much more!   Love, Pastor Kent
