[Mondeor] MCC AGM 21 August

[info]

REMINDER:  MONDEOR COMMUNITY CHURCH AGM - Sunday 21 August 2011 directly
after the morning service. All are welcome!

 

Don't forget, the Young Adults will be serving lunch this Sunday, 7 August
2011.  R30 Adults, R20 Children, please support them.

 

 

Someone has said if Christians really understood the full extent of the
power we have available through prayer, we might be speechless.

 

Did you know that during World War II there was an adviser to Churchill  who
organized a group of people who dropped what they were doing  everyday at a
prescribed hour for one minute to collectively pray for the  safety of
England, its people and peace?

 

There is now a group of people organizing the same thing here in South
Africa. If you would like to participate:

 

Every evening at 9:00 PM Stop whatever you are doing and spend one minute
praying for the safety of South Africa, our citizens, and for a return to a
Godly nation.

 

 

Thought for Today:

 

Your Best Days Are Still Ahead

..."Do not call me Naomi; call me Mara..." Ruth 1:20

Learn to build your life around your person, not your role, otherwise when
your role changes you'll lose your sense of worth. Being a good mother is a
noble calling. It's also a self-sacrificing job. But when your children
leave home and those demands are over, it's easy to feel like Naomi did. Her
name meant 'my joy' But after her two sons died she changed her name to
Mara, which means 'bitterness'. Don't allow changing times to change who you
are, or to make you stop dreaming and give up hope. God still had a lot for
Naomi to do. In the future she would mentor Ruth, who would give birth to a
son who was destined to grow up and become part of the lineage of King David
and our blessed Lord. What an honour! When your role changes, remember that
your life's not over. See your own worth as a person, discover your next
assignment, gather up your assets and keep on living and giving. Don't
develop a 'Mara mentality'. She allowed herself to become cynical when her
circumstances changed; don't let that happen to you! Discouragement often
comes when we feel like we've seen it all, heard it all, done it all, and
most of it was bad. No matter how old you are, you can never say you've seen
it all. God can do '...exceeding abundantly above all that [you] ask or
think...' (Ephesians 3:20). You don't know what God will do with your life
before it's over, but He has a way of saving the best for the last.

 

 

Blessings in His Precious Name
