CORE

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Thanks to all who came out to celebrate and bring the New Year 2009 in with CORE!

What a great jump start to the New Year with friends, food, fun, music, praise, and dancing!

The Fusion Band was phenomenal bringing forth praise and worship in excellence. The guest DJ, Matt, kept us dancing on our feet in fun with flashes from the past as well as current songs and music.

The DJ started us off with a Soul Train line where brave souls burst onto the dance floor and showed everyone their best dance moves. There were many smooth dancers out on the floor.  During the night all the men surprised and serenaded Pepe Pemberton who was brought upon stage because it was her birthday.

Those who still had stamina and energy ended the New Year’s Party dancing, eating, and fellowshipping until 2:00 a.m.

REJOICE! AGAIN I SAY REJOICE!

RECAP:

Last week we learned that rejoicing always is God’s will for our lives. Rejoicing in the Lord is to take pleasure in the Lord. HOW DO WE DO THIS? We must start the process with our thoughts. How we train ourselves to think determines how well we fulfill God’s will for our lives to rejoice in all circumstances. What we think about determines our perspective and our attitude.

1. We have to replace a complaining attitude with a thankful attitude.
2. Replace a covetous attitude with one of contentment.
3. Replace a critical attitude with one of love.
4. Replace a doubting attitude with one of faith.

HOW DO WE BUILD OUR FAITH? We cultivate our faith with the word of God. We confess our faith with our mouth and corner our faith with trusting action. Below is a great quote from the author Dr. David Stoop regarding faith:

“Most of us think of faith as being trust in something positive. But faith is a process of life. No one is faithless. It is not a question of whether we possess faith or not. It is rather a question of where we place our faith. And our thoughts are the best barometer of the object of our faith. Faith is a process that works in releasing life-changing power in either a positive or negative direction.” (Book - You Are What You Think)
