1/25/2024 0 Comments Y committed to god scripture![]() Last week we talked about making a difference in the world around us by sharing with others good news of God’s love and grace. So there is a lesson to be learned here from my life, always trust God over yourself! I believe we talked about that a few weeks ago.įriends, amazing things happen to you and in your life when you are fully committed to God, and I believe that God is going to do big things among us and to us and through us as a family here at South Shore. So we are beginning this series, actually we began last week, entitled, “Making a Difference”.Īs a church, we are embarking on a new adventure an adventure that will have us grow closer to God and closer to each other and most importantly will allow for us to make BIG changes in our lives and the world around us for God. I thought that I knew what God would have me to speak on for this year, but I guess that I was wrong. Well, I fell as though I find myself in such a spot. The well-known speaker and author Charles Stanley once said that his church began to be effective when he started to listen to God and the leading of the Holy Spirit and not Himself. We still may do that series, someday, but God has other plans for us now. So, God’s bulldozer crushed that schedule that I had almost carved into stone, as He begins to carve out the path for South Shore.Īs many of you know, we had been planning on doing a series entitled, “Questions for God” in which we were going to look for God’s answers to some tough questions in life. Well, as I have said, when we follow Christ fully and turn our lives over to God’s leadership, God tends to carve out the path for our lives and He has a way of seeing that we go that way. I mean I thought it was a sure thing and to change it would be wrong. ![]() I mean, this schedule of topics was going to be carved in stone and couldn’t be changed for anything. ![]() Recently I was sharing with the leadership of our church a Sunday speaking schedule that I had made up back before we even had our first service. But it is through these leadings of God that amazing and incredible God things take place. When you are fully committed to God and fully committed to His leadership in your life things sometimes happen that are beyond your control. It is often times a funny thing being a follower of Christ. ![]()
