We don't have to figure out what our spiritual gifts are before we begin serving as the body of Christ. God uses "unusual suspects" to do His work, like the Samaritan in Luke 10 who just did what needed to be done and served out of the compassion that God gave him toward someone in need.

A quote I recently heard stated: "At its best, music provides language and a soundtrack for your emotional and intellectual life. If an artist does his or her job well, they describe the world as they see it in a particular moment." In the same way, the Psalms are a soundtrack from God to us for our emotional and intellectual lives. They are raw, real, joyful, disappointing, full of anger, sadness, peace, confidence and everything in between...and God put them...
The heading to Isaiah 59 simply says "SIN, CONFESSION, REPENTANCE". It is a simple concept, so why don't more believers take hold of it and live in the freedom God has offered to us? The invitation is to live our lives "In His Presence In The Present"; the past covered in forgiveness, the future in God's hands.
God responds to desperation, but you don't have to have a life-crisis to become desperate for God! Psalm 107 is a story about 4 very different groups of people who cry out to God in God hears them and delivers them. Will you become desperate for God in the good times?
What if we got rid of all of the "how to's" we've heard concerning prayer? What if we became a blank slate in 2018 and asked Jesus to "teach us how to pray" as if it had never been attempted before? What if we got rid of our fear of failure? OK, now we are getting closer to where we need to be. Join us as we ask the right person the right question in 2018
God has set eternity in our hearts, yet apart from God's perspective we cannot see ourselves, others, or God as they really are. We need the Prince of Peace.
