The Lord has done it

WOW WOW WOW WOW AWESOME!!!!! that is all i can say the Lord God has answered again another prayer. THANK YOU GOD!!!! Let me tell you the story. The Lord has been dealing with Luke my oldest son now for probably a year or so. I know this because there were several times this past year he would come to me asking lots of questions even crying sometimes. April 14 while we were traveling to school we were listing to a song my Toby Mac called "lose my soul" While we were listening to that song he said "dad i want to be baptized" i did not have to explain to him that being baptized was not the way of salvation. He already knew that he was a sinner and needed Christ in his life. He knew that baptism was the next step. I pulled over and prayed with him (not the sinners prayer) but a prayer of rejoicing that God is still in the business of saving souls. April 20 he made it public, and this Sunday April 27 i will have the privilege of baptizing my son, my brother in Christ. Thank you Jesus.

I can't believe it

Cut off!
Do you have a spiritual short circuit?
Zapped rat causes Stockholm power outage
STOCKHOLM, Sweden—The electrocution of a fat rat in an electric station Saturday caused a three-hour power outage in Stockholm's central train station, halting elevators and escalators.
The early morning outage led to some delays in train traffic, said Jesper Ekenlund, a spokesman for power company Fortum. Nearby hotels and shops also were affected, he said.
"The rat had sneaked into a secondary substation and came into contact with some parts that caused it to short circuit," he said.
"It must have been really big because there's a certain distance between the parts it touched."
Ekenlund said Fortum will now have to decontaminate the area where the rat met its fate.

Isaiah 59:1-2 (NLT)
Warnings against Sin
1 Listen! The Lord’s arm is not too weak to save you,nor is his ear too deaf to hear you call.2 It’s your sins that have cut you off from God.Because of your sins, he has turned awayand will not listen anymore.-->
According to today's God's Story scripture, what cuts us off from God?
Check out these notes from Tyndale's LIFE APPLICATION STUDY BIBLE:
59:1-14 Sin offends our holy God and separates us from him. Because God is holy, he cannot ignore, excuse, or tolerate sin as though it didn't matter. Sin cuts people off from him, forming a wall to isolate God from the people he loves.
When a rat got into an electrical source in Sweden, many stations, stores and people were without power. People were in the dark. They couldn't function in a normal way.
When you and I allow the things of this world to be our focus rather than focusing on giving ourselves to God in complete worship and obedience, we will find ourselves cut off from His power in our lives.
If you want to keep sin from short circuiting your spiritual life, get rid of the "rats". Keep your life "decontaminated".
-->
How can we connect today's God's Story scripture to our lives?
Praise God for His ultimate power! Thank Him that the same power that raised Christ form the dead is available to you through the Holy Spirit to live every day. Let His Spirit help you identify any "rats" in your life right now. Confess them and receive Christ's forgiveness. Thank God that He will restore you to a right relationship with Him. Thank Jesus for His love, His guiding light and power to live in obedience to Him.
Make a written list of the "rats" in your life that often cut you off from God's power. Thank God for using his power to remove them from your life. Keep the list and review it weekly to make sure that these "rats" don't sneak back into your life and short circuit God's power in your life.
Read the entire chapter of Isaiah 59 to learn more about God's forgiveness of sin.
-->
How can we connect today's story and God's Story scripture and our story to others?
Make a plan with at least two other Christian friends to hold each other accountable and encourage each other. Whenever the power goes off wherever one of you might be, or a light switch doesn't work, let God's Spirit remind you to contact each other to check on any possible "rats" in your lives.
Think of friends in your storysphere who are interested in God's Story and your faith story. Use today's rat story to share with them what you have learned about staying connected to God's power in your life every day.

The Community Egg Hunt was a hit once more. We had probably around 700 to 1000 people show up this year. With the Lords help we hope to visit these new prospects and tell them about Christ. I hope to have pictures up soon.
