SPIRITUAL SUNDAY - QUESTIONS

My Question for God

What are some key questions I should ask myself each day?

A Moment With God

Search for the Lord and for his strength; continually seek him. Psalm 105:4

Shouldn't people ask God for guidance? Isaiah 8:19

Hear me as I pray, O Lord. Be merciful and answer me! Psalm 27:7

Are you the Messiah we've been expecting, or should we keep looking for someone else? Matthew 11:3

The crowds asked, What should we do?" Luke 3:10

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Perhaps nothing reveals the heart of human emotion more than the questions we are asking every day. Questions reveal who we are, what we're thinking about, what we long to know, and what drives us. Do you ask God for wisdom and guidance? Do you question whether your work is self serving or serving God? Have you asked God what he wants you to do with your time, energy, and resources? When you regularly ask God questions like these and have an open mind and heart, you will find the answers you need to live a life that pleases God.

Divine Promise

Call unto me, and I will answer thee, and show thee great and mighty things, which thou knowest not. Jeremiah 33:3

OUTDOOR WEDNESDAY - Mama, Look!

While this isn't "outside," I couldn't resist showing you my 14 month old granddaughter taking in her first snow fall! My daughter emailed this picture to me and it is too cute not to post today.

Don't you just love the "tippy toes!"

CHRISTMAS WITH A CAPITAL "C" BY GO FISH

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IAckfn8yiAQ This is a funny YouTube video, but also a great way to get across the fact that CHRISTMAS means something! It is NOT "happy holidays!" The song by GO FISH really tells it like it is - but it's done in a sweet, gentle way!

I hope you find it as uplifting as I did. For more Spiritual Sunday inspiration please visit Charlotte and Ginger at Spiritual Sundays.

OUTDOOR WEDNESDAY-OUR DAY IN THE CITY

They were just starting to decorate the Christmas Tree in Rockefeller Center the day we were there, November 18th. The ice skaters at the rink at Rockefeller Center...

The tree is still in the scaffolding pictured center left, with the star ready to be lifted into place sitting near crane to the left of the tree.

SPIRITUAL SUNDAY - WE HAVE TODAY

Today is ours -- let's live it.

And love is strong -- let's

give it.

A song can help -- let's sing

it.

And peace is dear -- let's

bring it.

The past is gone -- don't

fret it.

Our work is here -- let's do

it.

The world is wrong -- let's

right it.

If evil comes, let's fight it.

The road is rough -- let's

clear it.

The future vast -- don't fear

it.

Is faith asleep -- let's wake

it.

Today is free -- let's take it.

-Lydia L. Roberts

A VERY HAPPY THANKSGIVING TO EVERYONE FROM OUR FAMILY TO YOURS!

SPIRITUAL SUNDAY

Last week I showed pictures of our church as we celebrated our 220th anniversary.  Today I will take you on a tour of the stream and pond that grace the back of the church property.  We will start at the gazebo where marriages are performed and celebrated. Then we will follow the stream to the pond and some beautiful calm and peaceful views.  You will see the benches and the cross where we hold Easter Sunday sunrise services.  Also, along the way you will see some picnic tables that were just built to replace the old, old ones that were there. Our young, and not so young families have picnics here.  We are so very fortunate to have this lovely spot to worship and also to find peace and talk with the Lord.

"Oh, that men would give thanks to the Lord for His goodness, and for His wonderful works to the children of men!"  Psalm 107:8 NKJV
