Our prayer is that God would grant us access to the doorways of their hearts and homes that they may see and experience the engaging love of Jesus.<BR/><BR/>Richard and Susanne Bolt<BR/>The Gathering Place churchAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-977967510986482879.post-37672581213097256442009-04-05T14:37:00.000-05:002009-04-05T14:37:00.000-05:00Great Post!

I was so moved and inspired by the service. We attend a church in Lee's Summit right now and are struggling with the question, "Is it time to change churches". If the Lord leads, we may be back to The River.<BR/><BR/>Either way, we will be praying for your meeting on Thursday about the Hospital building.<BR/><BR/>God Bless!Sherri Watthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14881063773709539588noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-977967510986482879.post-36237232643157579492009-03-28T21:00:00.000-05:002009-03-28T21:00:00.000-05:00Amen! Being in a neighborhood with a bunch of non-...Amen! Being in a neighborhood with a bunch of non- Christians is actually a gift. Loving on them doesn't mean we agree with their ways. I struggled with this concept at first because I felt that if I didn't say something about their wrong ways, then they would think I agreed with it. The difference now is, I love them for them and if they ask me questions I answer from my heart, the Truth, but in Love, no condemnation. I remember that big ole plank in my own eye! We got to love them, because they belong to God. Even if they haven't received Him, they still belong to Him. He is their creator. I love to share and talk about God with other christians but why would I want to keep Him to myself. I want to share Him with others even if I never 'say' anything. I want them to experience Him through me.<BR/><BR/>A quote from Christ Life Solutions: "There is a big difference between you trying to be like Jesus, and Jesus being Himself and living His life in you".<BR/><BR/>I must allow Him, Jesus to be Himself and Live His life through me in my neighborhood!!! This is my prayer for myself.<BR/><BR/>Lisa SandersAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
