Greetings All

Greetings in the Agape Name of Jesus Christ,

In 1977 I saw a movie that has stayed with me to this day, and will for the rest of my life. The movie is "Oh God", starring George Burns in the title role. (note: a remake is scheduled for release in 2011) During the movie, 'God' has a monologue in a courtroom. To sum it up, He reminds us that we need to love each other. It seems like a simple task,doesn't it? How are you doing with that? Let me help you find out. Try going one full day without having a negative thought about anyone! I admit to you that I have tried this many times, and never make it! If we are to truly love one another in the fashion God desires, we must be able to have a critical component of love; a component called grace. Thankfully, we have God's love and grace with us always, just for the asking! In the final scene of the movie, the supporting character asks 'God' if they could 'get together now and then', just to talk. 'God'replies, "You talk, I'll listen!" Next time you have a hard time loving, talk to God. He is listening!

1 Corinthians 13:13 "And now abideth faith, hope, and love, these three; but the greatest of these is love."

May God Richly Bless You All!
Now is the Time for Worship!

Greetings All

Greetings in the fair name of Jesus Christ!
I was reading the local obituaries, and started to chuckle. My co-worker was a bit curious, and asked me what was so funny. "This fellow," I replied,"died at the age of 94; but it says here he died unexpectedly!" Tell me folks, what should we expect at 94? I'll let you know when I get there! There is one thing we can all expect after death though; a face to face meeting with God himself. Did you know that everyone will face God? Awesome thought, isn't it? Imagine standing there in front of God, and He is about to review your life, and hand down your judgement; or your reward. Which one will he give you?

Hebrews 9:27, 28 "And it is appointed unto men (and women) once to die, but after that the judgement: So Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many, and unto them that look for him shall He appear the second time without sin unto salvation."

Romans 6:23 "For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord."

Perhaps the dead man's family is right...at some point, 94 years doesn't seem very long!
May God richly bless you all!
Now is the Time to Worship!
