hello guys :)haven't posted for so long! :) how has everyone been doing, from the looks of it almost everyone got into your first choices for posting right? thank God :) just wanted to encourage you that prayer really works, and that if you include God in your planning, the peace from the knowledge that you are where He wants you to be is immeasurable :) remember to keep including Him in the planning of your life! about street e, am really proud of all of you for contributing and coming down, and meeting and sharing with people even when you all were initially shy :) really makes me very proud to see all of you daring to step out of your comfort zone! don't be too discouraged if people don't want to accept, the important (and i think most joyful thing) on saturday was that almost 140 people heard the gospel! which means they heard (in many forms) about Jesus' love for them and God's great plan for their lives :) so for that we must be thankful :) remember sometimes all it takes is that one step out of our comfort zone, its' obedience that God is looking for, people who are willing to stand up and step out for Him.I pray this street e will not just be a one-off experience, but it will fire in us a passion that will keep going, that we will keep refining and keep learning how to share the gospel with other people :) remember the best testimony still is not words, the most powerful testimony is through your actions, your speech. people are looking :)found this while i was surfing the internet, just thought i'd share it with you. scary thoughts, but oh how true:"The Devil's Beattitudes" If the devil were to write his beatitudes, they would probably go something like this:1. Blessed are those who are too tired, too busy, too distracted to spend an hour once a week with their fellow Christians - they save me the effort of trying to keep them from God's blessings.2. Blessed are those Christians who wait to be asked and expect to be thanked - its pretty easy to keep them from working for God.3. Blessed are the touchy who stop going to church - they are my missionaries.4. Blessed are the trouble makers - they shall be called my children.5. Blessed are the complainers - I'm all ears for them.6. Blessed are those who are bored with the minister's mannerisms and mistakes - for they get nothing out of his sermons.7. Blessed is the church member who expects to be invited to his own church - for he is a part of the problem instead of the solution.8. Blessed are those who gossip - for they shall cause strife and division - that pleases me.9. Blessed are those who are easily offended - for they will soon get angry and quit.10. Blessed are those who do not give their offering to carry on God's work - for they are my helpers.11. Blessed is he who professes to love God but hates his brother and sister - for they shall be with me forever.which beatitudes are all of you living with today? remember to check your lives always, lest you fall into the Devil's trap..see you all on friday k! :)meanwhile take care and be good :)in His love and mine, paula :)
