Five For 63!

Posted on March 31, 2011 by Marlo Jenkins

Just thought I’d update you from my last blog on March 4th (wow, time flies). After I wrote that March 4th blog, later that afternoon I was returning to the church from an appointment and picked up a coffee at Tim’s. When I finished my medium coffee, I rolled up the rim and shouted, “I’m 1 for 20!” …for real! It was a ‘Win a Donut’! As of this morning, I am 5 for 63. I have absolutely no spiritual lesson to draw from what I just shared with you.

However, I did want to mention to you that if you were not in our Sunday Gathering last week, you might want to listen to the message about “Fear of Overwhelming Challenges” (March 27/11). I mention this only because it seems I cross paths with people everywhere who feel overwhelmed by the challenges that life brings their way. Near the end of that message, Michelle, a lady in our church family, shares a bit of her story that I am sure will help and encourage many of you.

This Sunday we continue in this series on fear, talking specifically about worry… which at various levels, so many people seem to be plagued with. Maybe it’s been a very long time since you’ve been in church. Maybe church has changed a fair bit since you were there. I would like the opportunity to commend you personally for taking the courageous step of checking out church again. I hope to see you this Sunday morning.
