Members of Bellfontaine UMC celebrated Pastor Appreciation Month with new pastor, Rev. Matt Tucker. The church gave him a monetary gift as well as collected a few items to help him feel at home in the charge parsonage. Thank you so much to all who participated! We appreciate you, Matt!
#bellefontaineumc Today's scripture is Exodus 17:1-7
#bellefontaineumc Pray -- call out to God. #bellefontaineumc This story warns against faithlessness. #bellefontaineumc We are called to contentment, not contention. #bellefontaineumc This story shows strokes of mercy from a God that loves us and is with us all of the time. #bellefontaineumc You belong to the great I AM! He is always with you. #bellefontaineumc You have Jesus on speed dial. All we have to do is pray about it. #bellefontaineumc Today's scripture is Romans 12:1-8
#bellefontaineumc Every person here has a special gift or talent. #bellefontaineumc Offer ourselves- our personal desires- to God. #bellefontaineumc We move away from God- God doesn't move away from us. Sin is the distance we "miss the mark." #bellefontaineumc Our self worth is found in the identity of Christ. #bellefontaineumc God sees you as worthy & valuable to His mission in the world. #bellefontaineumc Spiritual gifts are God's gift to this church. Not everyone has the same gift as you. #bellefontaineumc Dedicate your gifts to God. #bellefontaineumc When you practice using your spiritual gifts you make the body of Christ (the church) stronger. # #bellefontaineumc Today's scripture: Matthew 15:21-28
#bellefontaineumc How's your faith today? #bellefontaineumc The disciples' response to the woman was typical. #bellefontaineumc Two surprises: what Jesus said and the woman's response. Jesus is seeing the "invisible" people. #bellefontaineumc Nobody is any more or less important in the eyes of God. #bellefontaineumc We too are God's children. #bellefontaineumc God is there for you. My challenge for you is to be like this Canaanite woman. Look for ways to grow your faith. #bellefontaineumc Today's scripture Romans 10:5-15.
#bellefontaineumc Jesus is Lord - conveys unity - He is our boss - what does it says to others if we do not convey that message? #bellefontaineumc Jesus is Lord - is the tie that binds our hearts in Christian love - regardless of your denomination! #bellefontaineumc Everything we are means more thanks to the Lordship of Christ! #bellefontaineumc We know what Gods love looks like! #bellefontaineumc Be the feet - plug in and be the feet of Christ! |
