Blessings in the name of the Lord Jesus.  I was thinking how we often don’t know what we have or we don’t appreciate what we have because it’s right under our noses.  Some children I know are going to Florida and they are counting the sleeps till they go.  What about the children in Florida who live next door to Disney World, are they counting the sleeps until they get to go to Florida?  Not likely.  What about our Cabot Trail and the millions of people who come to see it and we who live here may not give it the time day.  I thought about church, serving the Lord, and worship.  We live in a country where we have the right to go to church, serve the Lord, and worship as much as we want but many who need to don’t bother.  Some have lost interest or don’t care but God will always have a ‘want to’ people.  Jesus in Matthew repeats the words of Moses and said, ‘You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind.’  Loving the Lord is a personal choice that must be kept burning in our hearts.  We are to fan the flames with joy, stoke the fire with acts of love, and add the fuel of our faithfulness.  Take some time today to talk to the Lord.
I was talking with a young man this week who raised his hand last Sunday morning in church and with tears he accepted Jesus as his Lord and Savior.  He said that this week has been so much better and he feels totally different.  He is now praying for his wife to accept Jesus also.   This Sunday in the morning I’ll be sharing on, ‘Whoever Can Have Whatever.’  There are many promises in the Bible that apply to us all.  Not just for some elite group but when the word declares that whosoever can have whatsoever then it applies to us all.  Are you a whosoever?  Are you willing to follow the Lord?  Then whatsoever applies to you!  In the evening Pastor Mark will be sharing the word and praying for the sick.  Come expecting a miracle. 
Continue to pray for all those in need, looking forward to seeing you on Sunday, lots of love, Pastor Kevin and Alice
