Hello everyone! We are on a cruise right now and just stopped in port so I thought I'd check in. No services for us today :-( but I'll download our church's message tomorrow and listen to it on my computer.

I thought you all might enjoy my daughter's singing at our family Easter celebration. She has a voice which is definitely a gift from God. She is 9 years old and this was her first time singing in front of a group so you can see she's very nervous. Enjoy:

I've been gone for awhile from the site. Just became busy with life and didn't use the internet very much. I am so glad to return and find this new thread. Thank you so much.
I believe that God puts people, places and proceedures in our path and gives us free will to use them for his glory. Having this Lap Band was an answer to prayer. Through the Lap Band then the responsibility I have to take to lose the weight God gives me and you the strength we ask for as well as that we don't. Lap Band isn't a quick fix. If we don't do our part, we do not lose what we need to. Thanks be to God that our doctors were taught this proceedure.

That is an awesome worship song and it's so encouraging to see this young girl belt out a song of love to the Lord!!

Good job! She did great! Also the Jesus painter - I actually saw another Jesus painter at the national fine arts in Orlando last year - he was AMAZING! He was a little different then the guy in the video but still such an amazing talent.

Hey Everybody I just wanted to give an awsome praise report this past weekend we did a huge outreach called the Convoy of Hope and it was so awsome!! We had over 5100 souls come and whats so awsome all we did was love and serve them. We offered free medical screenings, haircuts, family portraits, massages,food and drinks, a huge playland area for the kids, and when they left they got free groceries, and lots more it was so amazing. The guy that is over it told us that every person that came to treat them as the guest of honor,which they were. And to not treat them like Jesus but treat them like the guy standing next to Jesus! 95% of the people that came through were truly needy physically and spitually. He also talked about in the Bible when Jesus was talking about throwing a feast-not to invite the rich, important, or people that could pay you back but to invite the poor, the sick, the ones that cannot repay you because He says when we do this God will repay us- I would much rather have Gods blessings that anything in this world. Even if God never blessed me-thats cool because I just love helping others and serving them!! Also 301 children recieved Jesus as their Lord and Savior and we are still waiting for the final count on adult salvations. God is so awsome, I am humbled that I was able to be apart of this awsome outreach!!!!!! For more info on the Convoy of Hope visit the web site convoyofhope.org Maybe they will be coming to your town next-trust me its worth your time to check it out and like I said it may come near u and you can volunteer! Also something that was so funny to me they had this rapper on stage and he was really good and the last thing he said before he left was " The devil is a pimp so don't be one of his Ho's" that cracks me up everytime I think about it!!!God is sooooooooo Good!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Consider your current relationships.

Pay attention to who lifts and who leans? Who encourages and who discourages? Who is on a path of growth and who is going down fast? When you leave certain people, do you feel better or feel worse? Who always has drama?

The more you seek God and godly things, the more you seek quality; the more you seek not just the hand of God but the face of God, the more you seek things honorable; the more you seek growth, peace of mind, love and truth around you, the easier it will become for you to decide who gets to sit in the FRONT row and who should be moved to the balcony of your life.

You cannot change the people around you, but you can change the people you are around! Ask God for wisdom and discernment and use these gifts to choose the people who sit in the front row of your life.

Wow! Something to ponder.

Thanks so much to whomever started this thread. I love it!!!!

My favorite verse:

Jeremiah 29:13 - "You will seek Me and find Me when you seek Me with all your heart."
