“Genesis: Life starts here”
As most of you know I have been part of a home study for the past 2 months and I have to say it’s been an incredible experience as we have seen God working in amazing ways. There have been some really beautiful answers to prayer and encouraging things that have taken place.
A week ago I spoke with a young lady who has been having dreams about going to Africa and had a God given desire to go, so we prayed together and in just two days the Lord has opened the doors for her to go with Calvary Lake Arrowhead in June. Another amazing thing that happened this past Friday was when one of the young girls at the study shared how she has been praying for her mom and this week her mom has been picking up and reading her bible!! We are continuing to pray and hope she will join us some time soon.
Some of you may not yet know, as I don’t believe I have written about it, but we have moved forward and filed for our non-profit status and will became a state recognized church in the very near future, although it’s more important that we are recognized by Jesus than the state.
That being said we did have our first service this past Sunday (Easter as it’s called), what a great day!! We met in John and Tammy’s back yard, the weather was wonderful and we had a great time together honoring the resurrection of our Lord. I spoke from Luke 24 “the Road to Emmaus”, how Jesus showed up when they were in the middle of conversation about him. It’s so important that we keep the Lord in the midst of our conversation, and not just on Sunday’s or Easter services, but in our everyday life when we’re walking together on the road. It was also telling that the way Jesus chose to reveal himself to the two on the road wasn’t to remove the veil that hid his identity, but instead He took them to the scriptures, because as the Lord told us in John 5 the scriptures point to Him. So, how important are the scriptures for us today if we are going to get a clear picture of who Jesus is? Yeah, very.
I was thrilled afterwards talking with the people who were there as we continued the conversation about Jesus and His desire for our lives and to hear where they were on lifes road. I believe there are many who can identify with those two on the road to Emmaus, who believe in Jesus, but don’t yet fully realize who He is, that He’s alive and desires to walk with us still.
I'm looking forward as we We are going to search to get a clear picture of Him together
What a great beginning.
What a great beginning.
