It's nice to know that there are still some sensible folks out there who truly believe the Spirit can lead and guide us on a daily basis! I personally believe it is more than just being led by the Spirit. I happen to believe that the Word of God is true when it says in Titus 2:11-12"For the grace of God has appeared bring salvation for all people, training us to renounce ungodliness and worldly passions, and to live self-controlled, upright, and godly lives in this present age."(ESV)
When we have a proper understanding of the grace of God, we know that we are saved, not by any works that we have done, but by grace through faith, yet having taken on the very nature of Christ, grace trains us in how to live in such a way that our lifestyle is a reflection of who we are in Christ, so that we are not embarrassing ourself and Christ as we represent the kingdom of God on earth.

Thank you so much, TB!! It's nice to be considered "sensible"!!
LOL!! I was waiting for the Canadians to say something first...didn't want to appear 'pushy'...
Not much happening in our parts I guess.
Our services have been wonderful... I'm looking forward to Sunday with Anticipation. Our Pastor is in Pakistan for a conference, so prayers on his behalf and behalf of the missionaries are appreciated.

It is SO wonderful to hear folks who are excited with anticipation for the house of prayer. Church services are sometimes looked at as a 'have to' thing..."Oh we have to go to church tonight."
When in reality, what a privilege that we get to be in the presence of God and His people one more time.

I will certainly be praying for your pastor...
I know... and people are looking forward to prayer meeting too. My husband and I alternate keeping the kids... he goes one week I go the next.. and this isn't my week
Our prayer meetings have been something else.
