Doing What We Can

We have determined that we will do all we can to make sure no one goes hunger in Williamson County. Right now we are not big enough to make a huge difference. But we will do whatever it takes to see this become a reality.

I am ashamed to admit that there is a food pantry in our county, that does so much for our county, that continually runs short on food. I don’t know how many churches there are in Cedar Park alone. But it’s an indictment on the church when people in their own city go hungry. Yeah I am being harsh or judgement or whatever you want to call me. I don’t care. No one should have to go without food in our county. Period.

Living Rooms

I really enjoyed our small group last night. Kandy and I go to a different small group each time. It helps us get out and around to meet with so many people. Last night was just really good. The group we were at was such a good picture of a healthy and vibrant small group. I love it. Way to go Mike and Allison.

Week Beginning

I have considered lately that a lot of people look at Sunday as the last day of the week. And it couldn’t be more wrong. And so many people look at the Sunday as the last day of the week. Some may or may not go to church. And some may go but it’s a chore or they are going through the motions. What a sad situation.

Sunday mornings should really be the beginning of the week. It should set the pace for the rest of the week. A time to engage their Jesus with a bunch of other people. A chance to hear a message about the life transforming power of Christ. A chance to meet with like minded individuals. A chance to serve in some capacity. Overall, a chance to meet with God and for God to meet with us. That time should set the pace for the rest of the week.

I work pretty hard all week. And I could just kind of show up at church and wing it. I could just move through the motions. But I want to be with God and His people and learn about His purpose. I want to give my best on Sunday. And if Sunday sets the pace for the rest of the week, I want the rest of the week to be stellar!

Wiped Out

What a day. I think God has definitely used me up today. We had a really good service today. Worship was rocking. We dedicated four babies today. And I preached through the first eight verses of the first chapter of Ephesians. We then had our Living Rooms tonight and had a great time at one of our small groups. Amazingly great day!
