I know... I know... I'm so overdue for a blog entry. Thanks for your patience. To be honest my deeper writing and correspondence has gone more to the Core group in our church currently. So as much as I'd like to apologize... I can't, as I feel it is part of the way to which Roger and I are being asked to build a church that is healthy and strong from the inside out. Now... that being said I do have thoughts daily that I seriously think, "I need to write a blog about that."
I have random thoughts, insights and revelations daily that often I share with my husband and family. I've even jotted a bunch down on my iPhone. I shared a few of them with Roger a week ago and he declared, "Babe you need a Twitter account. Then you can share these more frequently with your followers." I liked the idea of readily being able to share with you and SO it begins. Roger set me up with a Twitter account!!! Yeah Roger!

I will still write blogs when I can but for now I shall find delight in sharing ever present truth, REAL truth on a more frequent basis. My prayer is that they will refresh you, inspire, motivate, even cause you to look deeper beyond the surface of things which is so incredibly shallow.
With the increase of technology may you chose to surround yourself with it in a way that refreshes your soul not drains and wastes your life.
Thank you for the prayers and support you have offered for our new church, WestMOUNT. God is blessing us immensely. We are humbled with such favor and desire to pour our lives out in this regard. For His Kingdom is the only Kingdom that shall stand for eternity. I believe this with all my heart. That is why we want to grow HIS TANGIBLE kingdom here and now, in the hearts of people.
Roger and I are somewhat unique in our leader gifting as a couple. We are learning this new "spiritual dance" of leading together. It's been fun and interesting at times...
Here's one story: Three weeks ago, Sunday morning Roger got the Norwalk virus, violently throwing up. When he got to church, he simply said, "Babe I can't stop throwing up. You're going to have to preach."
I hadn't even looked at his passage!! Talk about LIVE REALITY church. It was a complete stretch for me and yet God simply wanted to speak through me, if I would just be obedient and speak what He's been teaching me for years of my life.
I could literally feel Him bringing His word to life through me. It blessed me actually as I look back and see what He did. He taught both our church and myself new meaning to the verse 2 Timothy 4:2 Preach the word; be prepared in season and out of season.
Church isn't a show.. or a presentation... it's a community of people that love God and love each other. Maybe that's why He's provided the theatre for us to meet in, that we would focus solely on Him and the people. For the church is a body of people, His beloved body, not bricks and mortar.
I gotta go... my husband's waiting patiently for date night. Join twitter with me... and I'll do my utmost to refresh your soul based on His glorious truth on a more regular basis.
Sincerely,
A girl infatuated with God...
