#2 reason we get stuck

You have not completely Surrendered Your life and your will to the Lord. What part of your life are you still holding on to? What are you keeping from God? What do you not trust Him with.

If He is not god of everything, He is not God at all.

Reason #1 we get stuck


Reason # 1 Moving to fast, Slow down give God time to work! Just moving forward is not progress.

Don't believe me, disconnect the breaks on your car.

" To many people get lost trying to find an easier route for the strait and narrow."

Free to serve

The Road to recovery ends in service. The best way to serve is to Love.

Galatians 5:13-14
"You, my brothers, were called to be free. But do not use your freedom to indulge the sinful nature;
rather, serve one another in love. The entire law is summed up in a single command: Love your neighbor as yourself"

We are called to be free, and commanded to love each other. So why is the world so complicated?

Memorial day




One of my kids asked me the other day, "Dad what is Memorial Day?" I was a little taken back. In our church on Sunday all of the veterans were asked to stand up and be recognizes. I was a little taken back. So what is Memorial Day to You?


Please pray for the families of all the brave men and women who have given the ultimate sacrifice for our freedom.

May God truly bless this country again.

Escape is not the answer

Do not look for the easy way out, escape from trouble can lead to more trouble.

think life stinks, keep digging....

Gratitude

I am grateful for my Jesus....Listen to these words.

" Let not your hearts be troubled; you believe in God, believe also in me. In my Fathers house are many mansions; if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you."

Your place is ready. Are You?

We get to baptize a new believer on Sunday morning. I love what God is doing through Celebrate Recovery, at F.B.C. in Bettendorf. God is at work in Bettendorf Iowa!
