A Morning of Praise and Worship

I'm really excited about an upcoming event at my home church, Zoe Christian Fellowship of LA. This is the first time we're doing anything (to my knowledge) of this magnitude.

There is going to be singing, dancing, praising, worshipping, toe-tappin', hand-clappin'.. finger snappin' anything you can think of .. it's gonna be there.

The most special thing about this service is that it is going to be LED by the YOUTH and YOUNG ADULT ministries of our church, and it will feature some guests as well.

We are going to PACK OUT the sanctuary!!
Please show your support and come and have some good, spirit-filled fun with the ZCF FAMILY!

we are special.

It's amazing what this children's story has to say about God's love for us, and how important our self-image is.

Standing on the edge ..

i've decided to stop editing these things. this is what i'm thinking right now. didn't censor or edit it .. :-/

There's a study in psychology where they put babies on a table and let them crawl to the edge. They do this to see if the babies have developed enough to know that if they crawl over the edge they will fall. Most of the time when they do this study there is actually a clear glass extension from the side of the table sturdy enough to hold the baby if they actually do go out to the edge and crawl. So if the baby decides to take that extra step, the glass table is there to keep them from falling, and lift them up even though they are unaware of it's presence.

It's like us .. we crawl to the edge .. but we don't see that there is anything there to protect us from falling. We don't take the step out on faith because we don't see the safety net that's there to hold us up. But God is there .. waiting for our next move .. just like that sturdy glass at the edge.

I've reached the edge .. I'm ready to go .. but the fact that I can't see the glass .. I'm looking PAST the glass, waiting for something tangible that I can see and feel to guide me across the terrain. I'm at the edge .. I'm sticking my feet out reaching over the side .. but not yet ready to put my foot down and see if I can stand up. For now I'm just crawling in circles around this wooden table ..

New favorite song ..

I've probably listened to this song 20 times in the last 24 hours. It a reminder of how desperately we should be doing ALL things for His glory. We should seek first His righteousness, and all other things will be added unto us. (Matthew 6:33) Everything we think we should be, everything we think we should have, all that stuff doesn't matter. The bible says that WE don't even know what we really need, that's why we have to trust that God has us covered. Everything you need to become the person whom God has called/created you to be is ALREADY in you. Stop looking everywhere else, look to Him.

Sorry .. random tangent. Just listen to the song.

Couldn't link the full song, so watch some anointed

dancers minister as you listen. :)
