What a beautiful day the Lord has given us. This is enough to give me Spring Fever. I need to find a baseball game in the area. This is my favorite time of the year.
Sunday morning's sermon is still bouncing around in my head. The image of expressing true contrition being like that which is placed in a mortar (or Kathy's pilón) and ground up into pieces is really powerful. It has really made me think about my own personal dreams and desires, and if I am truly willing to come before the Lord and let Him have my entire life. Am I really willing to be broken, or even ground up into pieces so that He can use me the way He desires? That's a question we all have to deal with at some point.
On Sunday evening, March 2, we officially kicked off our new Home Group Bible Studies. In our service we prayed for our leaders and hosts, and celebrated in advance the many ways that we believe these groups will encourage our people to grow spiritually and create opportunities to reach out to others. I really appreciate the fact that so many of our people have been willing to get involved in this program, even though it involves a departure from the traditional church schedule of activities on Sunday evenings. We simply believe that it will open the door to growth in so many ways.
