Sunday Night Reflections

A Few Thoughts from an Amazing Day...

• Continued my series from the book of James this morning at Fort Caroline Christian Church. 
• Today's topic; Temptation
• From today's message; every time you defeat a temptation you become more like Jesus. 
• Temptation is both personal and universal, but we do have the ability to conquer temptation, see this verse.  
• I heard one of the most powerful communion meditations this morning from a respected senior saint. His simple message brought us to the Lord's Supper with eloquence and sincerity.
• By the time Monday comes to a close I will have spoken 3 times in 5 days, that is a lot of talking and a lot of traveling!
• It is hard to believe it has been 15 years since 9/11.
• 3 weeks ago I met a couple who were celebrating 70 years of marriage, today I learned the bride passed away this weekend. Praying for her husband; What a witness of faithfulness! 
• I heard this evening another preacher friend will be leaving his church soon, not his choice - ministry is tough, I hope you are praying for your minister. 
• Is it me, or are we jumping in on the pumpkin spice thing a little early this year?
• Savannah and I had a Papa and Savannah moment yesterday at Disney, she really lights up my life.
• One of the most difficult things about Kathy's passing is I have any one to talk to about a variety of things, she really had great intuition about stuff! Miss her!
• I was doing pretty good with the home cooking until Wednesday night, good thing there is a Wendy's close by!
• One day I am going to write a book about all the things I have seen in the churches I have visited. 
• Something to Chew on; Because of the Lord's great love we are not consumed, for His compassions never fail. They are new every morning; great is Your faithfulness. I say to myself, "The lord is my portion; therefore I will wait for Him. ~  Lamentations 3:22-24
