CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

From Hillsong Worship – “ Lead Me to the Cross”

Lead me to the cross

Where Your love poured out

Bring me to my knees

Lord I lay me down

Rid me of myself

I belong to You

Lead me, lead me to the cross

This chorus has been stuck in my head for the last few months. I believe God put it there to remind me on an almost daily basis that I need to be led to the cross. That I need to give up and surrender to God. 

I definitely need to “Rid me of myself” because I would say that 95% of my day is all about me. When I realize moments of selfishness I quickly pray that I would not make everything about me. 

MOLESKIN:

Prayer requests:  Noonan’s family, Gump and Spotter’s mother who is going through cancer again, Mandolin’s job search, Mr. Pulte’s heart surgery on Monday the 10th.

John 1:1-5

In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2 He was with God in the beginning. 3 Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made. 4 In him was life, and that life was the light of all mankind. 5 The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it.

What an amazing poetic and powerful introduction to Christ. 

I really want to challenge myself and you guys to focus on the true meaning of Christmas. The holidays have started and the pressure is on to get everything done. Presents, parties, etc. I have told my kids several times that I really want us to focus on Christ and others this Christmas. It’s easier said than done.

MOLESKIN:

Prayer request. Pool Boy – house closing and for him to continue to handle the divorce in a way pleasing to God.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

The Word:  Romans 7:18-25 – Released From the Law, Bound to Christ – Pauls submission to Christ

For I have the desire to do what is good, but I cannot carry it out. 19 For I do not do the good I want to do, but the evil I do not want to do—this I keep on doing. 20 Now if I do what I do not want to do, it is no longer I who do it, but it is sin living in me that does it. 21 So I find this law at work: Although I want to do good, evil is right there with me. 22 For in my inner being I delight in God’s law; 23 but I see another law at work in me, waging war against the law of my mind and making me a prisoner of the law of sin at work within me. 24 What a wretched man I am! Who will rescue me from this body that is subject to death? 25 Thanks be to God, who delivers me through Jesus Christ our Lord!

The 1st time that I truly heard this passage was about 3 years ago when I was a part of a group at church called Strong Hearts.  

I’m so thankful that Paul wrote this because we have all been there. We are cruising along in our Christian lives and then we fail. Then we feel the guilt pile on us.(Verse 24) We failed our father. (Verse 25) Our saving grace. Thankful that one of the great superheroes of the Bible laid it all out and admitted his struggles for an example for us.

MOLESKIN:

Prayer requests. Praise that Sargent Slaughter’s wife is recovering. Prayer for guys at F3 with injuries. Safety for Brolympics

ANNOUNCEMENTS:
