Gorgeous picture, Conor. Thanks for posting it! Getting
excited about the debate tonight. (I even ran to the store
to get popcorn).....I’m nuts occasionally!!!

[jaycee]

Great idea, Rus! I remember something you told us about a
long time ago and realized you were on the radio quite a
bit! Give it to’em every chance you get!

[ConorMacNessa]

Good evening, Jaycee, and thanks very much. That picture was on Bing.com a couple of weeks ago and I snagged it. I check out their pics every day - have gotten some very good ones there!

I'm also waiting for the Debate to start - I'll probably wander off to bed about a half-hour into it and watch the rest from up there. Had a miserable night last night - very little sleep and it showed at the office today.



Genuflectimus non ad principem sed ad Principem Pacis!

Listen, O isles, unto me; and hearken, ye people, from far; The LORD hath called me from the womb; from the bowels of my mother hath he made mention of my name. (Isaiah 49:1 KJV)

A Working Church
October 12, 2012

My wife, Shirley, and I enjoyed a cruise along the fjords of Norway in celebration of our 50th wedding anniversary. As we journeyed northward, we stopped in numerous towns and villages, often visiting churches. Among them was a 12th-century church that our guide described proudly as “still a working church.” I asked, “What do you mean?” She referred to the days of the state church, when the state-appointed pastors simply collected their paychecks but no one attended the services. But this church had been faithfully holding worship services and actively serving the Lord for almost 1,000 years!

I immediately thought of the seven churches of Revelation 2 and 3 to whom Jesus said, “I know your works” (2:2,9,13,19; 3:1,8,15). In addition, the church of Thessalonica was commended by the apostle Paul for its “work of faith, labor of love, and patience of hope in our Lord Jesus Christ” (1 Thess. 1:3).

I also thought of my church at home. For more than 130 years it has been faithful in preaching and caring for its congregation and community. It is truly a “working church.” What a privilege we have if we’re part of a local body of believers where we can grow and serve our Lord!

Lord, thank You for placing us into Your family and
giving us the privilege and responsibility to serve
You through our churches. May we be a shining light
of Your love to our communities and the world.

The church is a living body and must have working parts.

Read: Revelation 2:1-7

We give thanks to God always for you all, . . . remembering without ceasing your work of faith, labor of love, and patience of hope. —1 Thessalonians 1:2-3

Bible in a Year:
Malachi 1-4

"Lord, thank You for placing us into Your family and giving us the privilege and responsibility to serve You through our churches. May we be a shining light of Your love to our communities and the world. The church is a living body and must have working parts." ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Churches have a record of declining members over the years. Look at Europe, few churches are viable. The world is turning away from true faith ... which is the prophesy of the Holy Bible.

It tells us we are to be 'right with God and all prayed up', because we do not know what day will be our last day.

Let us live every day knowing God is with us and loves us, and also tells us to be obedient to His Commandments.

LIVE!
