Blue Hymnal #3: “Cleanse Me, O God” (Howard and Stanley)
Message: “A Heart Swept Clean, But Not Empty”
Sermon notes: We all take away various aspects and what I noted was: If we do clean up our heart, our mind and our life; what was empty will be filled (nature abhors a vacuum). As Christians we have to fill those spaces with what we want and if we don't - they will be filled with regrets. For the good to unfold in our lives, we must have a changed heart. We have an opportunity to fill our life in pursuit of our faith (our gift to God). How we are doing in this pursuit is a good question to ask of ourselves. If you have questions or would like to know more about Pastor Stanley's sermon today - let us know and we'll respond as soon as we can.
Blue Hymnal #58: “He Did it All for Me” (Howard)
Close of service.
For the week head - remember:
Prayer should be our First Response in any crisis. Don’t wait until things are hopeless. Pray Daily for His Guidance. Our problems are God’s opportunities. If just a small remnant of True Believers retains the spark of faith, God can rebuild it into a Strong Nation. We should not be afraid to approach God with our Prayers, but we must come to Him with Respect for who He is and what He can do.
