This coming CoR meeting

Hi lovely CoR group,

This Saturday August 13 we will be meeting at the offices for a teaching on the second half of Col. 1.

Meeting will start promptly at 6:30 pm. We will have a sign up sheet at the meeting for "fellowship" nights over the next couple of months so look at your calendars in advance to see what day you can host the meeting. Keep in mind that fellowship nights are every alternate week with the teaching weeks.

See you there!

How lovely are the feet!

Isaiah 52:7
How beautiful upon the mountains
Are the feet of him who brings good news,
Who proclaims peace,
Who brings glad tidings of good things,
Who proclaims salvation,
Who says to Zion,

“ Your God reigns!”

Ever wake up with a scripture "out of nowhere" floating through your mind?

This is the one that was there for me this morning. I knew what to do--well eventually I did. After thinking about the weekend, posting a note on FB (proof positive I need to fast from FB) I heard the words again. Then, I remembered again what to do. Bless God for his mercy and patience.

I searched for the scripture reference. What was God saying to me again? I wanted to believe that today would bring blessed good news and that's why the words repeating through my mind. But then.....what if.....could it be..... that God would use me to bring good news today? What if He would use me to bring The Good News to someone else today? What if He is saying that He is calling me to bring the Good News every day????????

Glory, Hallelujah! It made my heart sing to think about God using me in an extraordinary, extravagant conversation today!

So I must prepare, search the Word to see what it means about beautiful feet and bringing good news that "Your God reigns"!

Here are some of the things I found:

From Matthew Henry's Commentary:

Note, When bad news is abroad this is good news, and when good news is abroad this is the best news, that Zion's God reigns, that God is Zion's God, in covenant with her, and as such he reigns
All events have their rise in the disposals of the kingdom of his providence and their tendency to the advancement of the kingdom of his grace. This must be applied to the preaching of the gospel, which is a proclamation of peace and salvation; it is gospel indeed, good news, glad tidings, tidings of victory over our spiritual enemies and liberty from our spiritual bondage. The good news is that the Lord Jesus reigns and all power is given to him.


Whether you need to be reminded of the Good News or you need the Good News or you are called to bring Good News, be encouraged!

Our God Reigns and is there every step those beautiful feet of yours takes you! So get up outta your chair get those beautiful feet moving to follow our amazing Lord wherever and to whom ever He takes you.

What If .... movie†

This is a really great Christ based movie. I highly recommend this family friendly movie. I love seeing good movies with a sound Christian message that don't come off as "preachy" and yet declare the truth of the Word.
