Walking Close Versus Standing Back

Posted on by

When Jesus was alive and walking in the midst of people working miracles, there was always a crowd; people always wanted to be where the action was. They either wanted to get help or bear witness to it. And to those that were not able, they cried aloud for it.

So what about today?

We as God’s people often will be in services today and feel the presence of the Lord enter in the midst but stand by because we are either unsure or do not believe for whatever reason. These reservations, whether we choose to acknowledge it now or later, are ripping the church apart day by day. We NEED the spirit of God to heal our land, guide or direction, and repair the broken-hearted. We need the backbone of the pillars of the saints of God to be restored once more so that we stand again proud and not afraid when one small trial comes through to blow us over!

I choose today to walk close to the presence of God! I want to be right in the middle of it! I press through the crowds of hindrances and stumbling blocks in faith just to get to the hem of Christ’s garment! I’m that desperate for joy and peace in my life! There is no other by which we will stand and have a stable life! Join with me in walking close again and not standing back anymore!

Singing And Speaking At Beacon Of Light

What better way to begin writing about this other than talking about what the night was for: the Lord God!

The presence of the Lord was surely abundant and ready to help whosoever would come! We only sang a couple of songs, but it was easy to do nonetheless! We always feel free and welcome when we go. The message was about as long as the last one, haha. I hope to have it on the web site in about a week. I get them on here as quick as I can. I hope that it blesses you! Enough about us!

The drama team there did an amazing job with the songs that they sang together. They even have enough youth to have their own praise band! I was totally digging that! They had at least two or three of them testify and it just blew us away! After their songs they performed 3 different dramas, and they were awesome! One in particular, performed to the song “Who Am I” by Casting Crowns was something that will reach out and bless anyone who sees it. As Rebekah said later in the night, they just do not realize what kind of program they have right now. We encourage the Beacon of Light to continue their focus on their youth! They truly are that generation ready to serve God.

Thanks to all of our regular church members and special visitors and friends for coming out and showing the support as well! You have no idea what it does for us sometimes!

It was truly a great miracle that we made it there! For me and my wife, it was just one of those days in traffic and a reminder that the ministry is not always going to be a bed of roses but is well worth the road trips!

I was so thrilled to have all of the family there. We call ourselves “Heart of Grace” as a trio (Me, Rebekah and Mona), but we have sang as an entire family (with Regina, Kay, and Dan) for many years. People sometimes just assume that people are glad or happy or that they feel the way that they do, but I like giving roses where they are due. We are a very tightly-knit family, and I appreciate what God had planned for us long ago. Everyone has a special place and part and without each part it just is not as special!
