Trusting The Lord

Wednesday, June 7th, 2006

(Exodus 14:5-31) Most of us know of the story when God parted the Red Sea for the Isrealites to cross, then swallowed up the Egyptians. The scene started with a doubting people, the Isrealites, fearing for their live thinking somehow that God wouldn’t take care of them in the face of the attack by Pharoh’s army. Once God led them across the parted sea, and into safety, they turned back to trust in the Lord out the kind of fear we are called to have of Him.

Where Are The Hands?

Monday, May 8th, 2006

(1 Corinthians 12:1-31) That title might seem very odd, but it comes from the very passages in Corinthians as Paul talks about the body of Christ. The part that struck me most, is how some in a church feel no need to use the gifts God has given them to serve in the church. Even now, as I think about my own stepping back from some of my service at my church, I am concerned that I’m failing in being apart of the body. I do however think that being apart of the body of Christ is beyond the church local as we would typically think of church. I serve also with my gifts at my work place, which is also a place of ministry.
