Youth Group Happenings:

Goofy Games Night!!!

After a week off, Youth Group is back in Full Swing! This Sunday (10/14/07) we will be holding our annual Goofy Games Night. We will be playing fun (and often times, messy) games that encourage team work. It would be best to wear clothes that you don’t mind getting dirty. PLUS, as always, we will be holding a vote for wackiest outfit. Go and show how wacky you really can be!

Please Note: Goofy Games Night is from 6:30pm-9:00pm

God Bless!

POTENT QUOTABLES

"As Christ drew near to death, He Himself trembled. It was an experience of all His creation, but He had never felt it. To His humanity, His assumed flesh, it seemed terrible - Gethsemane bears witness how terrible it seemed; but He passed into it for love of us."
- Phillips Brooks

"Easter says you can put truth in a grave, but it won't stay there."
- Clarence W. Hall

"Now let the heavens be joyful,
Let earth her song begin:
Let the round world keep triumph,
And all that is therein;
Invisible and visible

Their notes let all things blend,
For Christ the Lord is risen
Our joy that hath no end."
- John of Damascus

SOMETHING FOR YOUR HEART -

For we know that since Christ was raised from the dead, he cannot die again; death no longer has mastery over him. The death he died, he died to sin once for all; but the life he lives, he lives to God. In the same way, count yourselves dead to sin but alive to God in Christ Jesus. [Romans 6:9-11]

It's easy for this all to seem confusing. Don't let people tell you they have it all figured out because the process is a journey that doesn't end. There is a difference between getting a life from God and getting a life of God. God has already given you a life. What you do with it and how you use it is entirely up to you. (Choice is another gift, but that's another talk...) Having the life of God begins when the Holy Spirit comes in to stay. The challenge is to make room for him. Our job is to look at our lives and say, "What am I willing to let go of?" "What is keeping me from a closer relationship with God?" Perhaps it is anger or bitterness toward someone in our past. Perhaps it is anger at ourselves. We hang on to so many things we don't need, but as this journey continues we must make room for the spirit of God in order to have that life of God.

[OZ (Oswald Chambers) says:]
The weakest saint can experience the power of the Deity of the Son of God if once he is willing to "let go." Any strand of our own energy will blur the life of Jesus. We have to keep letting go, and slowly and surely the great full life of God will invade us in every part, and men will take knowledge of us that we have been with Jesus.

Just between you and God: Prayer is just that... between you and God... so what you say to him and what you give to him stays between the two of you. Dig something out of your soul that you have been carrying around for too long. Give it to him. He will fill the space it leaves with his love. For real.
