We've scheduled a Home Interior Open House for March 1st. You can check the calendar section on this blog for details. The purpose for this Open House will be to earn money from Home Interior so that we can purchase a few items for the church. It will also be an opportunity for many to get a little tour of the church! I think it will be a fun day!

The Valentine Banquet was last night at the Link Church. It was a nice time of fellowship with friends. We ate good food, shared prayer requests, and handcrafted little prayer tags that had each lady's request on it. The banquet was over by 9:oo, but it seemed that no one wanted to leave. I think it was a nice time for the "girls" to get out of the house (moms getting out without their kids)!

There's a scripture I read the other day that I've really been mulling over in my mind.

Phil 4:19
19 But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus.

According to His riches in glory! God made everything and owns it all! He'll supply our needs according to His riches? God's riches are limitless! What a thought! We really don't have to worry about whether or not God has the resources. If we've prayed and sought God on a certain issue in our lives, and He has not provided... maybe it isn't really something we "need" after all. Maybe we think we need it, but it's really just a want. Sometimes what we think we need isn't really what God knows we need... or maybe we do need, but not at the precise moment in time that we think we do. God's timing is just as important as His will!

God has all the goods, and we have to trust that He will give us what we need, when we need it! But that is contingent on us being obedient to His commandments.

John 14:15
If ye love me, keep my commandments.

Prov 3:1-2 My son, do not forget my teaching, but keep my commands in your heart, for they will prolong your life many years and bring you prosperity. (from New International Version)

There are many benefits we get when we obey our Heavenly Father!
