MANY YEARS AGO

It is a good exercise to look back over the activities and events in your life and reflect on the lessons learned. Many years ago we discovered the fact that God is interested in PEOPLE! We can do many good things with our lives and achieve many dreams. But if we truly want to be in God’s Will we must do the GOD THINGS rather than the good things. There are many things we can busy ourselves with – another meeting, another project, another outreach – all good things in themselves. But scripture tells us that “Except the Lord build the house, they labour in vain that build it.” Psalm 127:1 We must know that God said “Have another meeting” or “Plan this project.” The lesson we learned many years ago that has been the driving force of our ministry is that God loves people. Every thing we do is viewed through the lens of lifting people – of showing them they are valuable, important, loved. That’s a GOD THING…and a good thing, too!
