Sunday am service

Wow!  What a service we had this morning.  I love it when God comes in and the Holy Spirit just takes over.  This morning in the 11am service that is exactly what happened.  Half way through the worship service the altars were opened and people flooded to the front.  Thank God for more than 1 pastor because  we’d still be there if it was just me trying to pray for everyone.  I think that what is fun about those moments is how different people react to the presence of God.  The look on their faces as they worship God.  The tears that stream down their faces and seeing people just lost in the moment.  I’m actually rather reserved myself (in my opinion) but my father always taught me that people react differently in those moments and that’s ok.  God wired all of us a bit differently and that is a good thing!  It’s called diversity.... It seems to me that if we all acted exactly the same way it would get really boring very quickly.  It’s like Paul wrote in 2 Corinthians that our strength is our Diversity and our Unity.  We all need each other and I think there is room for everyone to express their love for Christ within the biblical guidelines that are written in the Bible.  Regardless, this morning was awesome!  26 salvations and we lost count of the people in the altars for prayer.  Can’t complain about that!
