Ephesians 3:17b-19: And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love, may have power, together with all the saints, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, and to know this love that surpasses knowledge--that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God.

God Will Help You Find Your Way



Aren’t mazes the best!! I just love them…the challenge of which way to go, what is around the corner, is it the right way, the wrong way….when are we going to make it to the end…..LOVE IT!!!
I am so glad you found this maze gift that we have left for you. Isn’t it great to find an unexpected gift from someone…..and even though this time you may not know the person who left this gift for you, there was a tremendous amount of love and thought put into this gift from so many different people!!!! And believe it or not, God orchestrated this gift to be left JUST FOR YOU!!!
Do you have a really great pastor? I do, and I am so thankful that God speaks to me through him every Sunday!!! I have to share something with you that I learned today from our sermon and has truly opened my eyes for the way I want to view things from now on…….and that ismotivation!!! The VBS children that attended our church this year were tasked with a very great challenge of leaving a gift for a random person each week until our next VBS, and if it was not for their motivation of making sure they completed this task, you would not have received this gift!!! Being generous and giving things away and not keeping things for yourself allows you to love and to love to give (something else I learned today from our sermon) and this is a great thing!!!! What motivates you to go and do the things that God wants you to do, is it reading your Bible, listening to a great sermon, praying, giving, loving others, completing a great maze that will challenge you to go complete unfinished jobs……whatever it is, find it and DO IT!!!
With a maze you usually have no idea what is waiting for you around the corner, but one really great thing about Gods love is we know that it is ALWAYS waiting for us around any corner…..with big ole open arms waiting to just pull us in and allow him to love us forever. God has a gift for you, just like the one you found today, free…waiting for you to just take it….and that is eternal life with Him. John 3:16 tells us that “For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.” Eternal life, that is FOREVER, and what better place to be than with our heavenly father.
Do you have a church that you can call home? I do, and it is the greatest feeling in the world to know that I have them to support my family, my struggles, my fears and my everyday challenges I stumble on in getting motivated to do Gods work. I would love to invite you to my church, Sardis Baptist Church in Indian Trail, NC…..please come, join us, I would love to met you!!!
