Have you ever had a narrow escape? The kind when you gasp almost cartoon-like with relief because you made it there safely, made it out without incident, or just in the nick of time?

You Might Have Missed the Point about “Feeding the Five Thousand”
Don’t we all just want to know that in spite of what we are dealing with, in spite of the little we feel we have to offer, how inadequate we feel – it’s inspiring to know that God can use us. – but like the disciples laying out their points to Jesus about the big crowd and small resources – also all true – they were missing the actual point.
Loved. Missed. Prayed for.
A year from now, you will never, ever say, “I wish I hadn’t gone back to church.”
Let this be the beginning of a new year when you are back and right and satisfied again fully in His love for you…and sharing that love with His family! We have missed that time with you! You will be welcomed and you will definitely welcome the love, the hugs, the community, and fellowship of the body of Christ into your regular life – no more saving it for “special occasions.” No more excuses. No more waiting until life settles down and you get caught up on laundry, work, weeds, bills…just go.
You are someone’s LMP- you are definitely my LMP…loved, missed, and prayed for. I hope to see you Sunday.
