Thoughts

September 26, 2009: A day to remember. The start of a momentum.   Crossing over many denominational, generational, and racial boundaries, the bride of Christ came together as one with this prayer on their hearts, “Lord, awaken PA to our destiny and may all the words that You have spoken over this state come into fruition so that the nations will know that you are Lord”.

This week I was reflecting on my high school years and was shocked to find out that I really miss it. There was  the excitement of sports activities, musicals, friends around at all times, and always change, change, change.  You never new what crazy things were going to happen when you had 1,000 young people on one small campus.

“Come, Let’s Go Up the Mountain of the Lord!“  Its a mandate, a warfare, a life style, a celebration

Here is a great quote from Francis Frangipane in his book, Holiness, Truth and the Presence of God.

“Let us not forget that the “kingdom of God does not consist in words, but in power” (1 Corinthians 4:20). Words, by themselves, are an illusion. They are merely the labels we use to define reality; they are not the reality they represent.

Over the past nine months I have replaced the same part on my vehicle three times. Once on my old car and now twice on my new car.  Frustrating, I know, especially because it’s not the cheapest thing out there to replace. It is called a plastic housing for the coolant system. After replacing it now for the third time, I decided to ask the Lord if there was a lesson that He wanted me to learn through these experiences.  I heard Him explain something to me but was not sure if that was what it was.
