What is around the corner, will it handle you or will you be ready to handle it?
We have been following Jonathan and his armor-bearer as they have stepped towards the Philistine garrison with a dark cloud of uncertainty looming over them. What does God have up His sleeve of challenges?
Is it embarassment or victory?
Do you have a giant lurking after you?
Maybe there is that challenging person that you are having a time understanding?
Is it your marriage, possibly an uncomfortable relationship with a business partner?
What is bringing uncertainty into your life?
Join us this Sunday @ 3pm to see how we can Chase Daylight amidst the uncertainty of the darkness that looms throughout this world in which we live.

Initiative
Today during small groups, we took a trip with Jonathan and his armor-bearer.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Jonathan said to his young armor-bearer, "Come, let's go over to the outpost of those uncircumcised fellows. Perhaps the LORD will act in our behalf. Nothing can hinder the LORD from saving, whether by many or by few."
(1 Samuel 14:6 NIV)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
God engaged Jonathan with a vision to conquer the Philistine garrison, and by trusting that God would act on their behalf, these two men locked forces and charged together.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Do all that you have in mind," his armor-bearer said. "Go ahead; I am with you heart and soul."
(1 Samuel 14:7 NIV)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In what ways are we going to take initiative this week? What is God calling you to do, what is the vision?
God can complete His mission with a great army of people or with you and I alone.
What will we do?
Will I hide behind prayer or will I commit as though it all depends on me, knowing all the while it depends ultimately on God?
Initiative --- will I embrace it or deny it?
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Spread servant love to our fellow members of humanity
Have a great week
Invite and Invest this week:)
