I am studying a little tonight as I watch just a small window of football - as I have to run setup tomorrow which means I am up early! I am ok with that - as I can relate to the folks who will come through our doors tomorrow who really need Jesus - they need to experience Him and some for the very first time. When we really need to hear from God as our life is hard and having issues beyond our control - I am all willing to be a part of setting up a place for others to come and be as they are and experience Gods GRACE.
As I prepared for tomorrow's Rock Group lesson - I came across a passage that spoke deeeeeep into my heart.
Philippians 4:8-9
8 And now, dear brothers and sisters, one final thing. Fix your thoughts on what is true, and honorable, and right, and pure, and lovely, and admirable. Think about things that are excellent and worthy of praise. 9 Keep putting into practice all you learned and received from me—everything you heard from me and saw me doing. Then the God of peace will be with you.

I am struggling with something today - something that I have been for some months now. I continue to lift that to God asking that He make things smooth - to make things work somehow - I am called to have compassion and extend love to others - just as we all are - some who really need it in a big way. It may be different for others but they too may need it as well but just in a different way or a different level.
Gods peace is what I am looking for and needing today........
