overflowing.

What just happened??  One moment I am beating myself up for not listening to God, and the next he is presenting an opportunity for me to say yes to Him...and I do!  God is so good.  Even when I feel so far and confused he is always there loving me.  So, that said, I am attending a new church at the beach.  They are a few years old, and really trying to form a church based on the way God would have it.  Sometimes I just feel like it is more about the name of the church than God.  When in reality it shouldn't matter about a title...but only about how the church loves God and is serving people according to His will.  I am realizing that it is really okay to love the church you attend.  It is good to be excited for the people you see every week and the way you have seen your life change.  But the church didn't do that...God did.  He used the church as a tool to change your life...but it does not have saving powers.  Thanking God right now for teaching me this lesson!  Anyway, listening to God calling me to stand up in front a church of people I barely know, and pray, is a sign of His life changing power.  Thanks God--and I pray as Christians we would understand the role the church plays in our lives.
