"GONE WITH THE WIND"

February 19, 2010

LOVE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
1 Corinthians 13: 1-13
If I speak in the tongues[a] of men and of angels, but have not love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal. 2If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but have not love, I am nothing. 3If I give all I possess to the poor and surrender my body to the flames,[b] but have not love, I gain nothing. 4Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. 5It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. 6Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. 7It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. 8Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away. 9For we know in part and we prophesy in part, 10but when perfection comes, the imperfect disappears. 11When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I put childish ways behind me. 12Now we see but a poor reflection as in a mirror; then we shall see face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known. 13And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love.
“A NEW COMMAND I GIVE YOU: LOVE ONE ANOTHER.
AS I HAVE LOVED YOU, SO MUST YOU LOVE ONE ANOTHER.”
BY THIS ALL MEN WILL KNOW THAT YOU ARE MY DISCIPLES,
IF YOU LOVE ONE ANOTHER.” John 13:34-35

ANOTHER YEAR HAS COME AND GONE WITH THE WIND!
WHERE HAS IT TAKEN US?
GOD HAS INCREASED HOPE IN NUMBER:
2 NEW STAFF +1 RETURNING AND 3 NEW VOLUNTEERS
He told them, "The harvest is plentiful, but the workers are few. Ask the Lord of the harvest, therefore, to send out workers into his harvest field. Luke 10:1-3
IN SUPPORT:
GOD HAS PROVIDED SOME NEW CONTIBUTORS AND INCREASES IN GIVING BY SOME!
38 “Give, and it will be given to you. A good measure, pressed down, shaken together and running over, will be poured into your lap. For with the measure you use, it will be measured to you." Luke 6:38
IN SPIRIT:
GOD CONTINUES TO WORK IN AND OF AND THROUGH OUR
SURRENDERED LIVES!
“There is now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the spirit. For the law of the spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of Sin and Death.” Romans 8: 1,2

WE ARE BINDING UP THE WALKING WOUNDED THROUGH HIS WORD;
BY HIS SPIRIT; WITH HIS POWER; IN HIS LOVE!

IN SHARING GOD'S WORD,HIS LOVE ALONG WITH MY EXPERIENCE, STRENGTH, AND HOPE WITH THE WOMEN GOD BRINGS INTO MY LIFE;
SOMETIMES WE LAUGH TOGETHER
SOMETIMES WE CRY TOGETHER
SOMETIMES WE STUDY TOGETHER
AT ALL TIMES WE PRAY TOGETHER
AT ALL TIMES WE HEAR EACH OTHER
AT ALL TIMES WE LOVE EACH OTHER
IT IS A BLESSING TO KNOW WHO I AM IN CHRIST,
I AM TRULY BLESSED TO BE WALKING IN GOD’S WILL FOR MY LIFE;
TO HAVE BROTHER’S & SISTER’S IN CHRIST OF LIKE MIND,
WHO SPEAK INTO MY LIFE AND FROM WHOM I GLEAN MUCH WISDOM AND LOVE!
TO ALL THE BEAUTIFUL WOMEN GOD HAS PLACED IN MY LIFE, MY PRAYER IS THAT YOU WILL ALWAYS LOOK TO HIM, STAY SURRENDERED TO HIM, PUT YOUR FAITH AND TRUST IN HIM, ALWAYS!
“For I know the plans I have for you, says the Lord. They are plans for good and not for disaster,to give you a future and a hope.” Jeremiah 29:11
