Rob...Wow I can totally relate to your issue, Joyce! Rob and I are very active in the Methodist Church that I grew up in, but I have never really subscribed to being a Methodist, per se.<BR/><BR/>The two of us and a few others in church belive as Jayme states, "THE SPIRIT IS ALIVE AND A GUIDING FORCE IN MY LIFE. I BELIEVE THAT HE PROTECTS MY FAMILY AND CAUSES ME TO GROW. I CLAIM HIS POWER IN MY PRAYERS AND IN MY OWN SPIRIT."<BR/><BR/>AMEN!!!<BR/><BR/>Sadly, our beloved pastor is being moved to a different charge and Rob and I are concerned that the "little fire" ignited in our church may not take off. <BR/><BR/>Pew warmers, indeed! We're the biggest bunch of un-excited, un-moved pew warmers I have ever seen and I feel like I want to break out... but alas, how do you break out without everyone else feeling scandalized?<BR/><BR/>Anyway, keep blogging, dear. I know I am not a faithful visitor, but I DO catch up on all of your posts.<BR/><BR/>**hugs**Jennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03342377055845994067noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12356076.post-1118725999817394812005-06-14T00:13:00.000-05:002005-06-14T00:13:00.000-05:00I agree absolutely. I know the Holy Spirit is act...I agree absolutely. I know the Holy Spirit is active in my life. I've been in way too many places and situations when those verses have been whispered in my ear!! I just am a wimp when it comes to confronting other people. Guess I'd rather leave them to their own demise and go somewhere where others are willing to allow the Spirit to be active. Cowardly, I know.<BR/><BR/>MH, thanks for commenting. Hope you're ok.

We are the Church of Christ. Big "C" on both words. Writing "church of Christ" is just part of the rhetoric we use to pretend we aren't denominational and therefore better than everyone else. :-) It's all in the little things...Nealhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02212617002044684403noreply@blogger.com
