Another wonderful day at church today! It has been a VERY long day, but we are VERY excited to see the way our people are just soaking up God's Word & the teaching & preaching on how to have a godly Christian home.
Luke preached about the choices we make as husbands & wives that will affect our families either to the good or bad, & that it is important to take responsibility for those choices. We also had 2 visitors & 1 saved today.
Then we had our monthly ladies meeting, and like good Baptists we ate & then I started teaching about God's plan for every wife, & what the wife's responsibilities are. I had been teaching for about an hour when I said "okay we need to stop here for today, & we will have to continue another day." And every lady there said "oh, no, mama. You just keep going we want & need to hear what you are saying." So, I continued almost another hour!! By the time we stopped and all questions had been answered, we only had about 30 minutes before our evening service was supposed to start.
Almost all of the ladies stayed around to continue talking, fixing each others hair, painting each others fingernails & toenails, & talking about other things that they could do that might please their husbands. They were really excited!
Then it was time for the evening service. For the months of February & March we are doing an intense focus on the Christian home. And last week we started a series of lessons & a 40 Day Love Journey. It was amazing to see some changes in some of our couples already, after only 1 week.
After all of that, we got home at about 7 PM. Just in time to get the computer booted up, Internet on for a Skype call with our home church (Bible Baptist Church in Jacksonville, AR) for a short time during their Missions' Conference. It was great being able to take part with them in their service today.
Then supper some here, clean up, & now it's 9 PM, and I think I have used up the last of my energy typing this post!!
Good night. May God bless all of you with a wonderful day like ours!
