Another Great Sunday

I mentioned the band was playing at Heritage this past Sunday, well, it was another great evening. We saw people get touched by God. It always amazes me to see God show Himself. I have been a Christian for thirty years now and God still reveals Himself to me in new ways. I would love to have been able to see Jesus and the Disciples. Can you imagine what it would be like to walk down the street and see the town's leper come running at you shouting, "Jesus just healed me"? Or the newly wedded couple, showing the pictures of their wedding and hear them telling how Jesus saved the evening at their reception when he told the servants to fill the wine containers with water and serve it. As the people started to drink what they were served they wanted to know where the most fantastic drink they have ever tasted came from.

When God reveals Himself it is like drinking the most refreshing drink you have ever tasted on the hottest day of your life. That first drink is the best and most memorable drink. But wait, the next time you put that cup to your lips and take a drink it is just a wonderful as the first. Then you take another and another and another and they just keep getting better and better. That is what it is like for me every time the band plays. We had a great time at Heritage before. We learned a lot of what this church is all about. It was an overwhelming evening and few days following as I soaked in all that had happened that evening. Then we go back this week and of course God showed Himself to everyone there again. (Well, at least everyone that I talked to that was there) We saw people saved this trip. Before we sang the last song one of the men came forward and made a public admission that he just accepted Jesus Christ as his personal savior and everyone in the church raised their hands and openly prayed for this new brother, because he just started the most wonderful yet most difficult journey of his life, he will need these prayers and many more on this journey

I have gone on long enough for now. Just a quick note, the band will be at Heritage again Sunday, September 7th. If you can make it I am sure you will not be disappointed. Not because we will be playing but because God will be there.

Hope to see you then.
