What is possible? A lesson from David

Let's not put limits on what we imagine God could do!

Can you pray too much and bother God?

A practical thought regarding prayer

God might work through you in unexpected ways.

E-Flash From Dan, September 17, 2015

Dear E-Flash Friends;

I’m sitting here working on my message for this weekend and I’m getting excited. This happens from time to time. Occasionally, I’ll get so pumped up that I have to leap to my feet, walk a few laps around the church, and fire off an E-Flash… like I’m doing right now.

You won’t want to miss the Fall Kick-Off service this Sunday, September 20^th. We will be launching a new series titled: “Experiencing Freedom!” The Bible tells us there is freedom in Christ. We will be talking about that encouraging and liberating reality.

The guys will be leading the music. If you’ve been here when the guys lead the music you know it is inspirational, exciting, passionate and fun!

We’ve even made a video invitation to the Fall Kick Off. That’s when you know we’re serious! Click on the link to watch the brief video.

There’s still time to invite someone. I hope you will take a risk and make an invitation. You could even send a link of the invitation video. Who knows what might happen?

I do know that God is going to do some great things this weekend.

You say, “How do you know He’s going to do great things?”

Because He’s God and everything He does is great! That’s why we gather together to honor Him.

I’m looking forward to seeing you.

Love and blessings,

Dan

For One Brief Moment At The Taco Bell

Rachel and I were sitting and eating as we enjoyed the ambience that can only be experienced in the cozy loveliness of Taco Bell.  The typical sounds of a busy restaurant could be heard as customers chatted, workers bustled and crispy taco shells crunched.

(Okay, I’m not sure I actually heard tacos crunching but, come on, use your imagination.  It helps the story.)

Suddenly the voice of a little boy could be heard.  It seemed to cut right through the clutter of noise…

“God is great

God is good

Let us thank him

For our lunch.

Amen!”

It wasn’t so much that he was really loud, part of what drew everyone’s attention is that the place grew surprisingly quiet when this happened.  A few folks looked at each other as if to say, “Is he allowed to do this?”

We all heard his little prayer.

I smiled.

For a few seconds all of us folks at the Taco Bell were reminded that a person can talk to God anytime and anywhere.  It was sort of cute and amusing.  But it also felt, very briefly, like a fleeting moment of worship at the Bell.

Then, quickly, the noise resumed.
