May your blessings be as abundant as your garden vegetables!
May you choose to share those blessings as freely as you have been sharing your garden vegetables!
SERMON SNIPPETS
Preaching Points ‘Ppreciated and Pondered by Parishioners…
“Every day, we can celebrate the forgiveness God has given us.”
“In reading the Bible, we see that over and over again, God encourages us to pray. We can talk directly to God ourselves. God wants us to communicate with Him on a regular basis.”
“Imagine if the only amount of forgiveness you received this week was equal to the amount of forgiveness you gave this week.”
“You have to put down the earthly trappings in your hands in order to pick up the cross to follow Jesus. And when you’re holding that cross, your hands are too full to pick up again whatever you’ve already put down.”
“God loves you—completely, for all time. So what are you going to do with your life to return that love?”
