Blessings Received

I am just completing a week of services at Messiah Village. Each spring they have a series of services for spiritual renewal. It was a great opportunity to share the Word with a group of seniors. I found it interesting to work at making the challenge appropriate to the age of the audience. The reality is that we are all living longer and longer and the application of the truths of God's Word are just as relevant for our senior years as they are for our younger years. It is good to be with a group of people who are pressing on after God.

I also found it very special to spend time with the same group of people over a week of preaching. In the midst of the week we met up in several different settings. This kind of meeting doesn't really happen when I just preach in one setting for one service and then am on to the next place.

Thank-you Father for the experience of sharing the journey with your children.
