Sunday June 7th 2009
Welcome faithful members of BBT. It was so good to see you last week and the ones that could not make it we are praying that you will be able to make it this week. Sandra has been visiting with us for the last few weeks and we no longer look at her like a visitor but as one of us, We did have some visitors, David and Katie who did visit and we are hoping that will continue to visit. David had lost his job and wants us to be praying for help in that department and for his family. We did not have a testimony this week as Anna was out of town but she will give her testimony in a couple of weeks. Dee Dee will give her testimony this week so be there to hear what God is doing in her and her Mother’s life.
This week I am going to be preaching on having a heart-healthy faith and what it means to be a one-calorie Christian. The scripture verse is one of my favorites Romans 8: 12-17. I want us to look at how we are looking at life and how little or how much we use our faith in decisions we are making. It is important that we are physically healthy but it is even more important to have a rich and satisfying spiritual life. We need to understand who we are and we need to understand how God sees us and how he sees others. If we were ever able to grasp the idea that we are chosen and joint Aries with Christ there is nothing we would not be able to do and we would be afraid of noting. That is who God created us to be!
I am looking forward to seeing you this week and please continue to look at the prayer request on the website and pray for those listed every day. Please add chuck cagle to your prayers as he has gone into the hospital and has had knee surgery. He is in a rehab center in Red Oak and needs our prayers for his quick and full recovery I also hope that you that made a commitment this week to call Arvella and pray with her kept your promise. I know that God blesses those that honor their commitments. We Will see you on Sunday aremember to dosomethig good for some one this week. it will help you with your heart-healthy faith.
Love ya
Pastor David and Pris
