I got this great email the other day, and I got permission to post it. God is setting people free and spurring us to live out our faith . . . full throttle.
Hello Pastor Dave,
I was in church this weekend, and it's always so amazing how God speaks to me through you and through the worship music. When we sang, Amazing Grace, My Chains Are Gone, by Chris Tomlin, I couldn't help but raise my hands for Him. It was one of the first times I raised them without being timid. It was refreshing. To be honest, it's hard at times not to raise my hands in the car when I hear it on KLOVE... which trust me, is not a good idea.. just ask any one that has been in a car with me behind the wheel. As my driving instructor drilled into my head... 10 and 2 Girl, 10 AND 2!!!! . :-) It seems like when I'm questioning things most, He finds a way to let me know He's right there. I really took to heart the not just believing but taking action in your faith and how both of them go hand in hand in order to work. I am ready to make a difference so people can see Jesus in me. I remember one time you said that sometimes the only Jesus people see, is me. So I want Him to shine brightly through me. I have a lot to learn, and have a lot of growing to do, but I am taking action.
ALRIGHT!!!
