It was a great message. First, he showed a bit of this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tfs1t-2rrOM and discussed just how big God is. Then he showed this picture:
I could comfort him when he cries:
I could protect him from danger:
I could change his diaper:
He went on to discuss the ways God shows his love for us (sending his son to die for us, giving us life, mercy, loving us while we were still sinners). He included Romans 5:8, Titus 3:4-5 and I John 3:16. The point was that God is indeed big, but he's not big and scary. He loves you. I think the campers really got it.
Anyway, tonight's message is sin. (Larry is not speaking.) Tomorrow night is invitation night.
Here's how you can pray/praise right now:
- Pray for the hearts of these campers, ages 7-13, that they will understand and accept the gospel of Jesus Christ.
- Praise God that we are all healthy. Chrissy's sore throat is gone and everyone is in good shape.
- Pray for Spirit-filled relationships between us and other believers here.
- We leave this Friday! Please pray that God uses us mightily in these last few days in Poland.
THANK YOU, Prayer Supporters!!!!
Oh no, David, not a butter knife!!!!
ReplyDeleteI love the pictures. They are so cute & funny. I'm sure Larry makes that face every time he changes David's diaper.
What a great idea for a kids' message. Looking forward to watching the video when you get it up.
How come Beth always says what I want to say before I get here?
ReplyDeleteI love the pictures too. I think they are so cute and funny too. I think it is a great idea for a kids' message too. :)
