His word says: Show me Your ways, LORD, teach me Your paths. Guide me in Your truth and teach me, for You are God my Savior, and my hope is in You all day long. Remember, LORD, Your great mercy and love, for they are from of old. Do not remember the sins of my youth and my rebellious ways; according to Your love remember me, for You, LORD, are good. Good and upright is the LORD; therefore He instructs sinners in His ways. He guides the humble in what is right and teaches them His way. All the ways of the LORD are loving and faithful toward those who keep the demands of His covenant. For the sake of Your name, LORD, forgive my iniquity, though it is great.
The LORD has given us such a beautiful gift. The free gift of Salvation & Forgiveness through His Son, Jesus Christ. It is by His power that lives are transformed!
Earlier in the week, I was blessed to speak with the Horizon Christian Academy student body. It was there that I shared how the LORD Jesus Christ worked in my own life, and how He is now using this wretched man, to show love to a less desirable group of people. Yesterday our Ministry was blessed far more than we could have ever imagined, by the youth of the Academy. They graciously gave to the Ministry, which will help further the work we are doing. I am personally very grateful for the generosity they showed us. We look forward to working with the student body in the future!
Tonight our good brother, Jeremy came along. Most who follow our blog should recall Jeremy. His life now is such a tremendous encouragement to those he used to drink with on the beach. The LORD has been doing awesome things in his life. He is maturing in the LORD each day, and I'm sooooo blessed to see the fruits of our labor.
We had another near record breaking attendance again. Thankfully the LORD put it on Amanda's heart to make additional food tonight. I'd guess we were just shy of 200 people tonight. As this Ministry takes on a life of itself, it's really cool to watch everything work together so well. Our volunteer team has grown. Our financial support has multiplied, simply by word of mouth. We have faithful people praying for us as we serve and throughout the week.
Not a single mouth went away hungry, nor did anybody walk away without hearing the Word of GOD with direction how to receive eternal forgiveness. I thank GOD that He has given me such boldness in these days. It's very encouraging to conquer my own silly fears and reap the benefits of people sharing how the message GOD has put on my heart, has touched them in a certain way.
I'm thankful for GOD's unfailing love. I'm thankful for His faithful direction & instruction. I'm thankful that GOD has found anything in me to use for His sake, no matter how difficult it was for me. I'm thankful for the cross and the life He paid...
My prayer is for others to see that we indeed are different then this world, and a curiosity would stir in their hearts, and a door would open allowing us to share of Him, The Author of Salvation!
