Getting up this morning, I had no agenda for the day.  Have you ever wondered what the Lord has in store 

for you in a particular day?  It's good to set goals every day, but spiritually, we should have "no agenda" of 

our own each day.  We should pray every morning, "Lord, You set the agenda for this day.  Bring into my 

life today the people to which I can be a blessing"  Have a great day!

Well...yes...the day has finally come to turn 57 years old.  Life is wonderful with each passing year when you

know the Lord!  I was reading in my devotions this morning that God does not "clean up" for us after trials in

our life; He goes through them with us.  What a wonderful God we serve!  I hope you have a wonderful day!

I would like to ask everyone to give me a special birthday present today ~ spend some quality time in the

Word and with the Lord!  Love you all!

Psalm 118:24 -

"This is the day which the LORD hath made ; we will rejoice and be glad in it."

It's raining as we get ready for church this morning!  Often we complain about rainy days when, in reality, we should be thankful.  We need this rain in Texas!  

Let's be thankful for everything God brings into our lives.  Hope to see you in church this morning!

Psalm 118:24 

"This is the day which the LORD hath made ; we will rejoice and be glad in it."

It is raining this morning as we get ready to go to church.  Many times we are tempted to say something like, "O great, it's raining this morning.  That's going to make the day difficult!"  when really, we should be thankful for God sending the rain.  We need it in Texas!  

Let's be thankful for everything God sends our way and look at it as a blessing in our life.  His way is perfect!

Have a great day. ~ Hope to see you in God's house today!

What a wonderful Ladies' Celebration we had last Saturday ~ Praise the Lord!  

Thank you to all of the ladies who put so much time and effort into the preparations!  The Lord worked in our hearts in a very special way, and I believe He was honored.  

If you had to miss it, make your plans now to attend next year!

Let's be in prayer as we head into the summer months,  We have camps, NBT, special speakers and a whole lot more to look forward to. 

May Jesus Christ be praised!
