Merry Christmas from Steve Myers!

This is Steve Myers pulling himself up from his wheelchair to stand on his combo ramp-jungle gym that some Phos men built a few weeks ago. Keep praying for Steve. He's in good spirits determined to have a speedy recovery. Your prayers and physical help make all the difference. Way to go Jeff Monnin, Jeff Wilson, John Carpenter and Robbie Mueller! The ramp is strong and brought a lot of hope to Steve.

Dinner in Florence, Italy with Evelyn!

Julie and I had a perfect flight from Louisville to Florence, Italy yesterday and overnight last night. We've walked much of central Florence with Evelyn and her roomies and had a fantastic Celebration dinner at a pizzeria this evening. Grateful for the chance to be here, for sure!

Merry Christmas,

WAITING.....

This is the manger outside the Duomo here in Florence. So symbolic of the waiting that Mary and Joseph did that first Christmas and the waiting we do during Advent to experience the fullness of Christ in us.

The Arrogance of Authority

 

 

The Arrogance of Authority

Image001
 
A DEA officer stopped at a ranch in Texas , and talked with an old rancher.
He told the rancher, "I need to inspect your ranch for illegally grown drugs."
The rancher said, "Okay , but don't go in that field over there.....",as he pointed out the location.

The DEA officer verbally exploded saying, " Mister, I have the authority of the Federal Government with me !"
Reaching into his rear pants pocket, he removed his badge and proudly displayed it to the rancher.
"See this badge?!  This badge means I am allowed to go wherever I wish.... On any land !!
No questions asked or answers given!!  Have I made myself clear......do you understand ?!!"

The rancher nodded politely, apologized, and went about his chores.

A short time later, the old rancher heard loud screams, looked up, and saw the DEA officer running for his life, being chased by the rancher's big Santa Gertrudis bull......

Image002

With every step the bull was gaining ground on the officer, and it seemed likely that he'd sure enough get gored before he reached safety.  The officer was clearly terrified.


  
The rancher threw down his tools, ran to the fence and yelled at the top of his lungs.....

(I just love this part....)

"Your badge, show him your BADGE........ ! !"

Check Out Evelyn's Blog for Some Incredible Photography of Florence, Italy

Just got off a Skype call with Evelyn and she's certainly a magnificent young person with a brilliant insight into life.  She's doing very well -- other than discovering that she likes Americanized versions of Italian food more than Italian-Italian Food!  

Check out the images on her blog -- stunning.

Check this out!  Meredith and Jeremy's car got smashed by this tree today during the storm.  The gameplan to help is to show up at their place tomorrow afternoon at 2:30 ready to cut wood and haul it away.  I'll post their address tomorrow and we will talk about it at worship in the morning.  

I know a lot of people in our area are without power as of Midnight.  I'd this extends we will open 4200 for a place to get a shower and a sandwich, charge cell phones, etc.  Let's just see if we get power by noon Sunday and then we willake the call.

Worship is ON at 4200 at 10:30.  God's power is still flowing so come if in!!  Yep, you can charge your phones and computers while you worship if you need to.

Peace,
Jeff

How Do I Find God's Will?

This is one of the hottest topics of all for Christ followers and rightly so.   Go HERE to learn more.

Posted via email from Jeff Fuson

How do I find God's Will for My Life?

This question gets a lot of press and rightfully so because we want to live life the 'right way' and we really do want to do God's will -- AS LONG AS WHAT HE WANTS US TO DO IS WHAT WE WANT TO DO ....!  The good news is that following God's will fits us quite well because He made us and He knows where our strengths and true dreams are.  So, we can trust Him with us. 

The challenge for some of us is that we already know what God's will is for us and we pretend like we don't because we don't want to do what He's calling us to do next.  If that's you, then don't expect anymore guidance from God until you do what He's already told you to do. 

However, if you're serious about finding His will and doing HIS will and not just your doing your own thing then you can be assured He'll guide you. 

But, it begins with just doing the very next thing that God asks of you. 

By the way, what God asks of you will NEVER contradict the precepts, principles and patterns already given to us in the Bible.  For example, you may be 'feeling' like it's God's will for you to leave your wife and kids to be with an old flame you've been chatting with on FaceBook.  I promise you that's NOT God's will even though you 'feel' like it is.  How do I know?  Because it would violate God's precepts already spelled out clearly in the Bible.  When you have to choose between your 'feelings' and God's plans from Scripture -- go with Scripture 100% of the time!

So, if you're really ready to embark on the greatest journey of your life then watch the presentation below and let these ideas sink in then begin doing the 'little daily things' that you already know God wants you to do and He'll move you to where He wants you to be over time.

peace,
Jeff
