TGIF!

TGIF! TGIF! TGIF! TGIF! TGIF! TGIF! TGIF!

TGIF! everybody!!!!! Hope you've had a great week........I have! We had Praise Team Practice last night---it was nice to be back with the "gang" and we had a lot of fun praisin' the Lord too! GO GOD! (We missed Sylvia, too!)

Tonight (Friday) our niece, Portia, graduates from OHS, and then this weekend, our nephew, Adair, graduates from FHS. Busy times......busy people.

It never ceases to amaze me, though, in the middle of this thing we call "life", there are so many "God-moments" and times to share our faith in the day-to-day things around us----everyday! Many call this "Lifestyle Evangelism" and it will be seen and heard more (whether good or bad) so much more than the sermons in our churches on Sunday. Don't get me wrong, I do think that we need our churches, but many people just want to GO to church.......we are to BE the church. Amen. It's all about the Kingdom of God and not a church building. It's a Kingdom-thing. The revival taking place in Lakeland, FL is an outpouring, that is to be taken out into the streets.....the highways and by-ways of life and shared with all people. God is doing incredible things in these days, and we need to use the gifts, talents and abilities, as well as just pray that we have spiritual eyes to see, and a spirit of Isaachar, to know ~~~ these times and what, when and how to do what God has not only called but created us to do. It may seem "foolish", but that is okay. It may not make sense to us at the time......that is okay, too. As my pastor says, "JUST DO IT!" Go for it!!!

I challenge you to look for the opportunities today and the days ahead for times that God wants you to step-out and step-up to the plate and share Him with others, do something for others --- with every word, deed --- not only in your actions, but your re-actions. It may seem like just some little something to you, but it may mean so much more to someone else. The world is watching and waiting for us to BE the Church. JUST DO IT!

God's love & mine,

Nonnie
