Mt. Jackson Live

Hello everyone, I hope you all are having a great day.  Wanted to remind everyone to pray for our Pastor and his family as they are traveling.  Let’s pray that God brings them home safely.  Let’s also be praying for our service on Sunday.  It is very important that we all pray through the week for Charley as he brings us God’s Word.   Charley and Phyllis puts so much time into the Sunday service so that it will be the best it can be so let’s lift them up by praying every day for them.  Charley’s messages bless us so much.  I am still meditating on Sunday’s service.  It was absolutely beautiful as well as thought provoking.       I hope everyone has a great day and rest of the week.

Good morning to everyone. 

Every Sunday morning, I have been announcing a women’s conference sponsored by Deliverance Temple in Brushfork.  Ann Neice tells me today that all flyers are out to over 300 area churches.  So I wanted to get the info out there again so that you can mark your calenders.

Saturday April 12th 10:00am to 2:00pm. Lunch is being provided.   Our ladies will leave Mt. Jackson at 9:00am.  Phyllis has been kind enough to volunteer to drive.  Thank you Phyllis.  Events include Praise and worship, Children and teen groups performing, and great speakers to provide Armor for our daily walk.  Speakers include Margaret Kirby, Pam Mathena and Linda Shinault.  All day fun with give away goodies and fellowship with our community ladies.  Sorry men.  Registration is appreciated but not required.  Call 304-327-7235.  Guess what?  It is free.  PLEASE come out and fellowship with us.  God will be pleased for our efforts.   

Let me elaborate on yesterday’s Blog.  I too have not been able to quit thinking about our service on Sunday.  There were so many great things about the day.  First of all, I was once again humbled by what Jesus has done for me.  Jesus has been so good to me, as Chris Tomlin sings, How can I keep from singing Your praise.  His love is so amazing to me.  He truly makes my heart sing.   

It was great to see so many people, but let me say it was great to also see Pam and Angie. I have missed them.  

I hope everyone’s week is blessed.     

I hope everyone has a great, Blessed day.  Happy Easter to everyone.  We had ladies practice las night and it was great.  We ladies are having a wonderful time together, even though we are only there less than one hour. 

Don’t forget to mark your calenders for the women’s conference at Deliverance Temple on Saturday April 12th, 10-2.  Lunch will be provided.  It will be great day of fellowship and there will probably be many ladies who don’t know Christ.  Maybe god may allow them to cross our paths and be able to share the Gospel with them.  I know of several people who are inviting some friends who are not Christians.  WOW, what a responsibility. 

The Extraordinary Women’s conference is also one that I go to every year and have for about 6 years. It is in September. Phyllis, Nancy and I will be going again and if anyone else would like to go I would be glad to give them info on how to get a ticket. 

Have a great day.

Today, I am counting my blessings. 

I woke up this morning and as I was starting my car, I found myself grumbling about the cold.  I was even talking out loud (As I often do) and telling God that I couldn’t wait until summer, and it was so cold outside, and I was tired of the cold,  blah blah blah.  God wonderfully reminded me that instead of grumbling about the cold, I should be thanking him for another day.  So as I was walking back up the deck, (still talking outloud), I was very thankful for the day and that I was able to walk to my car to go to work and that my family was inside, healthy and happy, so I really didn’t have too much to complain about.  Sometimes God has to remind us of all of our blessings so that we don’t grumble about the little things that really don’t matter.  So today, I am going to try all day not to gripe but to be thankful for all of my blessings (and they are numerous).
