| A worthwhile gift to yourself, instead of reading your horoscope....follow John Piper on Twitter. Always an interesting Tweet. | | |
| "Relying on God has to begin all over again every day as if nothing had yet been done." -C.S. Lewis | | |
| MAGNIFY YOUR MAKER " If anyone ministers, let him do it as with the ability which God supplies, that in all things God may be glorified. 1 Peter 4:11 NKJV
God endows us with gifts so we can make him known. Period. God endues the Olympian with speed, the salesman with savvy, the surgeon with skill. Why? For gold medals, closed sales, or healed bodies? Only partially.
The big answer is to make a big to-do out of God. Brandish him. [Now THERE'S a word. Look it up, as my dad used to say.] Herald him. "God has given gifts to each of you from his great variety of spiritual gifts. Manage them well....Then God will be given glory (" 1Pet. 4:10-11 NLT).
Live so that "he'll get all the credit as the One mighty in everything - encores to the end of time. Oh, yes!" (1Pet.4:11 MSG). Exhibit God with your uniqueness. When you magnify your Maker with your strengths, when your contributions enriches God's reputation, your days grow suddenly sweet.--a devotional book of one of my friends."

|  Praise God! God rocked the house. The Christmas Tea is now officially over. God showed up.God gave grace. God blessed. In a myriad of ways. A big thanks to everyone who did ANYTHING to contribute to everything that way done, to make this day a very special God-Day. A special thanks to all the men, who served the ladies, in all their men-way. We appreciate you all so much.
We will be evaluating the day. If you have any suggestions on how we can improve, change things, make it a better experience, etc: email me: at knobhill13@aol.com . Be nice though. All in all people had much praise for the day. And I am thankful, so thankful to everyone. Words can't describe what I feel in my heart. Thank you. And God, I praise you for your presence, your spirit, and your grace. I hope you were happy about today. And I pray people come to know you through today. To YOU be all the praise and glory. GOD, YOU ROCK! | | |
