EASTER

Tuesday, 06 April 2010

What a great Easter! Sometimes you just have to take a risk. For us that meant giving away our Easter offering to bless Seacoast Vineyard in Myrtle Beach. Honestly, it was not easy to prepare for this. Our budget has been pretty tight since the beginning of the year but sometimes you have to step out in faith. This is one of those times. We gave, not because we could but because we had to. Sometimes sacrifice is the first step of a breakthrough. This is no time for timidity.

The Holy Spirit is moving and He is unfazed by the economy. He has the power to bless and I think He is looking for courageous people to bless. It was neat Sunday to see people who had missed the regular offering come up after the service with cash and envelopes in hand. After the service was over an additional $4,000 came in. Visitors would not be denied participation. It was cool to watch. Now we are ready to receive all that God has for us. Come on Holy Spirit. Bless Seacoast Vineyard and bless CCC. Move among us. Meet every need, receive our love gift and anoint us to fulfill our purpose in You.
