Children of Faith Ministries

“Grace and peace to you from God our Father” –Apostle Paul

We thank God for the work that He has done in our lives. Our involvement in our Church, Lord of Life, is preparing us for what lies ahead in our lives.

Along with the daily routine of life, we believe that there is a need to expose the Gospel and Christ’s love to a lost, hurt, and dying world. It’s easy to get caught up in our own lives and forget that there are people all over the world who are hurting and need help. We have the opportunity to go on a short-term mission trip in January 2007. We are excited to be working with Children of Faith Ministries.

While in India, we will be ministering to children touched by the work of Children of Faith Ministries; as well as participate in outreach to the surrounding community; www.cofmvizag.org. We feel privileged to be able to encourage, teach, and pray with these children. Primarily this mission is focused on children ministries, but also encompasses community outreach and special projects.

We are prayerfully prepared to follow where God leads. We are looking forward doing God’s work to help make a difference in other people’s lives as He has in ours’. Others who have participated in mission trips have testified that this is a life changing event; it will strengthen our walk with the Lord, and expand our understanding for mankind.

Christians aren't perfect just forgiven

My bumper sticker is falling off. So before I retire it and replace it with "My mutt is smarter then your Honor Student", I must take I moment and share it with you.

Christians aren't perfect just forgiven

Most people know I am a Christian, Jesus freak even, sure call it whatever you want. What they dont always know is that it doesnt mean I am perfect and judgmental of all those who fall short. Its quite the opposite. It doesnt mean I judge others, it opens the door for others to judge me. Go ahead, scrutinize away. If you expect to find a perfect person here you will only be disappointed. I have a goal to be a better person, but I am human and fall short many times. Yes, I swear sometimes. Yes, I drink. Sometimes it is easy for me to hate, and difficult to forgive. I sin on many different levels. Yes, sin is part of my daily life.

The only difference between myself and someone who does not have a relationship with Jesus, is that I confess my sins and find forgiveness. I am given a new gift everyday when the Lord wipes my sin clear away and gives me yet another opportunity to strive to be better another day. He will never turn his back on me, and will always be there to pick up and push me to do better. He is my goal, who will provide the ultimate reward one day. When I meet him face to face and hear the words I long to hear one day. Well done, good and faithful servant. Until then, there is very little difference between you and me.

So many new and exciting things...

I have so much to say. So much I want everyone to know. Life has been pretty hectic the last couple of months. I can't make my mind slow down long enough to put a whole statement on the paper though. I promise I will update soon and share with you all the new and exciting things going on. Including the work we're putting together write now in preparation for our short term mission trip to Children of Faith Ministries in India. I can't wait to meet the children!
