What an incredible day in church! The great people of Pitcairn Assembly of God were able to raise over $800 for Convoy of Hope to minister to the folks in Haiti. They have had a presence there, and were able to hit the ground running in meeting the needs of people there.
I know God’s blessing will meet those who gave in prayer and of their finances – it’s a promise in God’s Word!
Every week I get the opportunity to speak to a fantastic group of people that God has entrusted to my leadership. One day I will stand before God and answer to Him for how I led His people, and did I do His will. While this is an awesome responsibility, it is also an awesome opportunity.
It is imperative that those times that I break open the Word of God – that is is presented in a relevant, Biblically solid, and powerful way - in order to have it’s desired effect. One man said this – “If we take the simple and make it profound, it’s effect will be simple. If we take the profound and make it simple, it’s effect will be profound.” Truly, how profound it is that God would send Jesus to pay the price for our sins, and that further He would go to prepare a place for us to spend eternity with Him.
I am still grasping that one!
