Sunday Evening Thoughts

A few thoughts about the weekend at Living Water:

• It was awesome to celebrate with the church what JESUS did last week at Repossess.  I love how our church celebrates the WIN!
• Andy put together a GREAT Repossess recap video.  If you haven’t seen it, view it here.
• I walked in on the Usher’s pre-service meeting before the 9.  I love those people.
• I love worship and today we saw what a GIFT worship is to all of us.
• The thing that the Father is looking for in a worshiper is spirit and truth, not the quality of our voice!  Thank God for that.
• Worship flows from the OVERFLOW of what Jesus is doing in our life.
• Form and Substance are important in worship, but only as they serve to LIFT UP JESUS.
• HUSBANDS - we need to lead our families in worship.
• The Holy Spirit will always direct us to reconcile relationships that are out of alignment BEFORE we come to the altar of worship.
• Worshiping in preference will block you from worshiping in power.
• My heart goes out to the hurting people we were able to pray with and minister to today.  JESUS is the HEALER.
• I LOVE seeing people come to the altar for prayer.
• To every spouse that is contending for their husband or wife - you are not alone, we stand with you in prayer and faith-DON’T GIVE UP.
• Don’t come to church to EVALUATE, come to PARTICIPATE

I love you church family!  God is up to BIG things in the LW family.  Pray this week for something miraculous to happen and for God to open a door that no man can.

Daddy and Cozy Date Night!

Thanks for everyone who offered a suggestion for our date night!  We went to Jonny Rockets for dinner.  Cozy had the chicken strips, but mostly just sucked catsup off the fries.  After dinner we walked through the mall and looked at EVERYTHING that was pink, sparkled or had frills.  I love my girl and am grateful to Jesus for His grace in my life!

Expecting...

 This year has already been an exciting year at Living Water.  The word to our church, "Expect an Encounter" has prompted all of us to ready our hearts for whatever God wants to do.  I've talked to several people who are struggling with feeling like they don't deserve to "expect" anything from God.   

If you've been thinking this way or have friends that are, this will encourage you.
