3 little helpful ideas

Speak Up:
That's right we should ALL tell more people about how GOOD God has been to us! Good news can spread too!

Shut Up:
That's right we should ALL stop telling people how terrible everyone else is. Gossip and slander doesn't fix anything.

Grow Up:
That's right we should all be studying the Bible and growing daily and if we do we will have no problem with Speaking Up and Shutting Up.

I hope these 3 ideas will be of help to you, because I know they have been to me. You might want to start with the last one .

God is moving

I just want to tell all of you what God has done in the last few days at Emmanuel and the Cowboy Church. This past Sunday night we had 2 teenage boys obey God and be baptized an we have one more waiting to. On Tuesday night at our Cowboy Church we had our largest attendance yet of 110 folks and a young mother gave her life to Christ. Then on Wednesday at Awanas we had a young boy about 11 years old give his life to Christ and wants to be obedient to God and be baptized. It has been a wonderful week. God is still moving! I am so proud of our student ministry as well, Jerry Massey has agreed to be our interim student minister and he is doing a Great job of bringing some new ideas to our ministry. God is good and I can't wait to see what happens next. Do me a favor and tell someone about our churches, I'll see you Sunday come prepared to worship and see God move.

Scriptures I find very useful

I'm sorry but I couldn't remember my password to blog, but I finally got it. So here's some scriptures that I said I would post that I think will be helpful to us all.

Phil. 4:19
John 16:33
Psalm 46:1-3 , 7
Isaiah 41:10
2 Timothy 1:7
Psalm 16:8
Psalm 55:22
Psalm 62:6
1 Peter 5:6,7
Isaiah 26:3
Joshua 14:10-12

I encourage you to read these verses every day for one week and just see if it effects your attitude.

COLD


It is bad cold in Piggott, Arkansas. One person I know said it was so cold he saw a snowman with a snuggie on, now that's cold. Every new year always brings new things. We never really now what to expect especially from the weather, but one thing is always the same and that is of course God's love for all of us. I just want everyone to know that no matter what happens to you in this new year God Loves You! For some of us it will be easy to see, while others may question if it is true or not, it is. God's love has nothing to with our actions it has everything to do with what He has already said from the Cross. I hope everyone has a Great Year.

Moms funeral


Happy New Year everyone! 2010 didn't start the way we all had it planned but it was sure the best beginning to something my mom has ever been a part of. Mom passed away on New Years eve night around 8 pm at the Piggott Community Hospital. She had been in the hospital since Monday night and finally went to heaven on Thursday night. Mom had been fighting lung cancer for the past several months and she never gave up. My mom loved life, and she wanted every day that she could possible get and that's why she lived as long as she did. Her family is what motivated her to keep trying. I have got to do this and that she would say with all the optimism of someone who would overcome that dreaded disease of cancer. Well mom's plans where not God's plans but I know she likes His better now that she's in Heaven. I am going to Miss her very much but I sure am glad she' not suffering any more.

I want to thank everyone who has loved on us in so many different ways over the last few days. We appreciate all you have done for us. I leave you with this, make 2010 a year of peace, forgiveness and great joy.
