Better to Give then to Receive

A couple weeks ago we had a womens leadership meeting at my church. We were discussing what we want to accomplish as a church with our in house single Moms during the Christmas season.One of the ideas we came up with was a "giving tree." I am sure most of you have seen these at grocery stores and such. It is a tree with paper ornaments on it. Each "ornament," has a name on it and a wish list. They are usually for children who live in childrens homes. These kids usually have no contact with their families and will never know who the person blessing them was. However, it is a HUGE blessing to these kids.We have decided to do it with the single parent families in our church.

When You Are Overcome with Fear or Sadness…

...RUN TO DADDY! Psalm 143 Hear my prayer, O Lord; listen to my plea! Answer me because you are faithful and righteous. Don’t put your servant on trial, for no one is innocent before you. My enemy has chased me. He has knocked me to the ground and forces me to live in darkness like those in the grave.I am losing all hope; I am paralyzed with fear.I remember the days of old. I ponder all your great works and think about what you have done. I lift my hands to you in prayer.

May your gracious Spirit lead me forward on a firm footing.For the glory of your name, O Lord, preserve my life. Because of your … [Read more...]
