Lazy

Yesterday’s sermon reached out and nipped you, didn’t it? 

Proverbs 20:13 Do not love sleep or you will grow poor; stay awake and you will have food to spare.

Poverty and Scarcity are not the companions Christians.  As Jesus walked on Earth, he didn’t have a lot of money, but he was wealthy.  He had been given much and He returned much (plus interest).  He was not in poverty.

Can you rest and keep your Sabbath strategically?  Don’t use it as an excuse to loaf.  It all boils down to prioritization and balance.  How can we keep the important things important, and how can balance our life?

I took the picture up there on our little vacation out to the Davis Mountains in west Texas. I could almost see a tribe of Apaches coming across the desert as my family loaded our wagon…well, I mean the silver mini-van. Instead of a six-shooter on my waist, I had a baby bottle in one hand and some wipes in the other. Oh well, I can still dream.

Anger

This week I am applying the sermon…

a.  Fully, I have taken all 5 steps, and believing in God to do the rest.
b.  I am trying it out, but haven’t broken through totally.
c.  I am a Christian and don’t get angry
d. I like being angry and don’t look to change it.
e. _____________________

Ratio

We are right in the middle of the guest contest we host every Summer. What usually happens is that you invite many people and only 1 or 2 actually come. What is your ratio of invitees to actual attending guests? Whoever is most successful needs to give us some tips.

This summer has been interesting with the 1 week “break” that we had, but we are jumping back in right where we left off. We really haven’t been talking about it much, but we are competing with the other churches. Jackie, how are we doing?
