me again :]

hey y`all!
great day at church :] eric- great sermon tonight! after morning service & sunday school i went to candaces & we walked in the rain. haha. willie & crystal did a great job singing tonight. and mitchell popped a balloon on me. i really dont like balloons. haha. that mitchell. haha. anyway, i want to talk about pastor chads sermon this morning :] first of all, he said something that really really stuck out at me. and i want to share it with y`all. when God closes a door, yeah we should go the other direction, but when something else closes a door, we need to bust the door open-just knock it down! and i really liked that. its so true. b/c theres gunna be obstacles when we're witnessing and doing the things God is calling us to do, but we just need to knock them over, not give up! so, pastor chad's key points:
when God is calling us to do something there will be:
1. spiritual prompting- when God's spirit tells us to do something. and if we pass it up, we're gunna really miss out!
2. spiritual uncertainty- were not always gunna know every detail, but we need to trust God that he will give us what we need, and tell us what we need to know.
3. spiritual resistance- thats where the door thing comes in. people will resist us, but we need to be persisitant
4. spritual clarity- if we're close in our walk with God, we'll understand exactly what hes asking us to do. Paul knew exactly what God put him here for.
well i thought it was a pretty great sermon :]
i love y`all!
God Bless!
