Sunday Words of Encouragement January 31, 2010

We had a really awesome service this morning! Our congregation is probably about 200 strong on Sundays. We have a men's group that meets Tuesday mornings at 5:45 consisting of about 15 to 18 men. There is another 15 or so who meet for the Wednesday night Bible study - maybe half of them overlap.

Some of the men gave testimonies on how the men's ministry is changing their lives! Then 25 men filled the alter to pray for our children. They closed with the Lord's Prayer and then sang Amazing Grace.... Very Awesome!

I couldn't find the song I really wanted for today but this is another uplifting song for our times!!  

These Are the Days of Elijah!

Verses for today:
Proverbs 4:10 - 11

10 Hear, O my son, and receive my sayings; and the years of thy life shall be many.

11 I have taught thee in the way of wisdom; I have led thee in right paths.

Chapter 4 is about asking for wisdom! I may have prayed this before (and probably will again!) - I pray that we ask for wisdom in our daily living.

Welcome to week #10 of Friday Pick!!  I have adjusted the Friday Pick link so that you will only get the actual Giveaway posts and not the winner posts.  That way you can look through the 10 posts of books.  Of course #6 included 1-5 so you don't need to go back beyond 6.  Use the links to see the pictures and the lists of the books still available.  

As I stated last week this will be the last new post of books for a bit while we let some of these current books get won and mailed to new homes!! I'll still post the Giveaway each Friday and maybe next week I will restate the books that are left --- if I get time! :=)

Remember for the overseas participants I am willing to give a $5.00 book certificate to international winners - Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Borders, TWRP, ClassAct Books, eTreasures, Desert Breeze, etc....you tell me where and I'll set it up. Overseas visitors your comment may indicate your choice of gift card.
