Yesterday was an amazing day of worshipping our unchanging God at gracepointe church. Nicole & the worship team did an incredible job and Phil sounded awesome on “You Are God Alone”. I began a series yesterday entitled: “X” . I have never been more excited about anything God has laid on my heart to communicate than the principles found in Exodus Chapter 20.
One of the most important verses for me in Exodus 20, is the very 1st verse, “and God spoke all these words”. I am amazed at the every day reminders of the truthfulness of God’s word.
The Ten Commandments (and they are Commandments, not suggestions or options) were, are and forever will be, God’s perfect “10″. These principles are not intended to prevent our fun and enjoyment of life, but just the opposite. Our Father’s message was intended for the protection of His children and to provide us with the best quality of life imaginable, both now and for eternity.

January 1, 2010. The first day of the new year. I have had a wonderful day of spending time with family and friends, watching TV and of course lots and lots of eating. Our traditional New Years feast always includes collards and black eyed peas (the vegetable not the group). My mother always told me the peas were for good luck and the collards were for money. I can’t say either one ever paid off, but I love them just the same. As I began the day with some time alone with the Lord, I opened up the word and immediately got stuck on that one statement, “In the beginning God created…” I thought about all the things God did in 09. Although the year had its share of challenges, there were many more reasons to celebrate.
*A new home for gracepointe
*getting to baptize our daughter in law
*Seeing Nicole go from singing at Cowboys to singing for Christ at gracepointe
*69 prayed to receive Christ at the annual Paulding County Youth Detention Thanksgiving dinner
* Engage Atlanta
* Emma starting high school
*Seeing God work in a miraculous way in my son Trey’s life
I am so so thankful for everything God did in 09, but He is still creating. I don’t believe God is through with me, my son, my family or gracepointe church. Today is only the beginning, I cant wait to see what God is going to create this year.
