Notes from Sunday's service (Thanks, Heather)
There was no 'Something To Think About' tonight.
Today, 40 years ago Mike and Ardith proclaimed their love through marriage.
Mike surprised his wife with a 'Ardith will you marry me again?' Pastor Caroline then proceeded to marry Mike and Ardith... Again :)
The Message ~ Pastor Dave MacLean
- LOVE CHAPTER - Love suffers long (God will never give up on you), bears all things (there's nothing you can do that God will leave you)
- Did you know the Jews never spoke of God as 'father'?! There were LOTS of names for God, but Father was only used in the Father's Prayer.
- God has a wonderful plan for your life.
- God has so many great things for us, and until we open up ourselves, we will not know what those things are. But we do KNOW, from reading the Word of God.
- You'll always come out ahead when you follow these two rules... Trust and Obey :)
- For us to live in victory, we need to trust and obey!
- If we have a heavenly father that loves us as in His Word, why would worldly things bother us?!
- Sometimes 'logic' just doesn't work... Like healing.
- Proverbs 3:5, 6... Trust in the Lord with ALL of your heart, lean not on your own understanding...
- This is not an easy thing.
- Did you know you have a seed of greatness in you... A loving Heavenly Father.
- Too often we let fear or logic lead the path.
- Hebrews 11:1... Faith is the substance of things hoped for...
- We have God on our side. If we trust and obey, we will win every time.
- God loves you NOT only when you're obedient!! He loves you at every moment... HE IS LOVE!! He knows nothing but love.
- Matthew 6:31-34... Do not worry about what you should eat, drink or wear...
- Worry might come, but don't keep hold of it. Don't dwell on these things.
- Seek after peace, seek after joy...
- We need to walk by FAITH and not by sight.
- It takes faith to activate trust.
- What Christ is, is in us.
- We don't have to prove anything to God. We don't need to pray more for God to love us, or to serve more for God to love us... He loves us where we are, in the state we are!!
- Romans 12:19... You are His DEARLY BELOVED!!
- Even when you do wrong, your sins are already forgiven, even years ago
- The world is watching our reactions; we may be the only 'Jesus' people see.
- When people say or do something hurtful, he/she is hurting in some aspect of their lives, so let's no retaliate, lets love and not add to their hurt.
- John 3:16... Says nothing about 'works'. It just says believe!
- You can't control the acts of others, but you CAN control your acts towards people.
- Remember this: trouble and trials will come your way, no matter what you face, don't lose love and faith.
- Trust and obey 'cause there's no other way to be happy in Jesus, but to trust and obey.
Cheers
