PRAISE GOD!!!
on saturday, i posted a list of the commitments i was starting to make. prayers are being answered and i am starting to realize where i need to cut back. i haven't unfolded the news to several people on that list yet, but after i do, i will send you a master list of my commitments -- you will see they will be cut back! praise God, He is so faithful and reliable!
yesterday at church, a new series making a connection between 80s music and elevation was unveiled. yesterday pastor delivered his message on growth, using acts 2:41-47. he also made an announcement about the future of our church. God provided for elevation in such a big way. God literally (and i mean literally - listen to pastor's sermon on line and you will hear for yourself!) opened the doors to butler high school providing more seats with the opportunity to have 2 sermons there. elevation currently has 2 campuses (union @ porter ridge and central @ providence). we will close the union one and replace it with the butler campus. butler will open on september 23rd. during the 8:30 service, pastor asked the congregation to make a move over to butler, as he did with all 3 services. jamil and i feel that we are suppose to make the move to the new campus and be used however God intends for us to be used there. we don't think it is an accident that this has come about during the time that we have been in between commitments at church. this will be yet another change for us, but we really feel like God has his hands all over it and we will be obedient.
i am praising God for giving me answers to some of my prayers and for giving me direction on His will for me. i am praising Him for change, because i know it is part of this process of pruning and growing i have been going through over the past few months.
