“When they had prayed, the place in which they were gathered together was shaken; and they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and spoke the word of God with Boldness.” Acts 4:31 (about the first believers and the early church)
One of my most frightening childhood memories was my first jump off the diving board into the community swimming pool! I love to swim, but I really don’t like heights! The only way I was going to pass swimming lessons, was if I could jump off the board! I know it took me a very long time, but finally I jumped. I think I had my eyes closed and my mouth open, but I did it!
Sometimes when a great opportunity is presented – you just have to JUMP in! JUMP with both feet and your hands outstretched!
This fall we have so many wonderful opportunities at Abiding Love! We have Bible Studies, Sunday School, Youth Groups, Koinonia Groups, and so much more! Being a member is more than just going to worship. Yes, it starts there, but then as you make new friends, your relationship with God grows and you can be, like the members of the first church in the book of Acts, “shaken”!
I pray that you will feel the shake of the Holy Spirit and that you will, with boldness JUMP IN!
JUMP into boldness with our many ministries at Abiding Love!
See you in church,
Pastor Lynnae
