Much to Learn?

Hello again,

I just got home from along commission meeting where my workload as Sevier County's Planning Director just increased tremendously. I know that in all these trials and challenges, God is growing me in the areas of faithfulness, perseverance, and memory( you know, He is in charge, He has the plan for me and my family, be faithful in the small things and He will give you charge over much). Therefore, I will continue to do my job as unto the Lord with my whole heart(kardia) and know that He is Romans 8:28ing for me because He loves me, and I'm learning to love HIM.

At Pinnacle Bible Church we are continuing our study of the Names and Titles of our Lord who is Jesus (Jehovah Shuah - God's Salvation) the Christ (Christos - the anointed one). We are currently on one of our many sidetrips in the Word studying the I AM's of Christ and are having a great time gaining in Knowledge and Grace, 2 Peter 3:18. This coming week we shall look at the John 11 scripture with Jesus saying " I am the Resurrection and the Life" ; "He that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live!" This study always reminds me of the Carmen song of several years ago, Lazarus. You should check it out sometime if you like scriptural story songs.

We solicit your prayers for our study and spiritual walk, for Megan and the baby, for Beth and the baby, for Jared and his fellow Thailand mission travelers, and for Strong Guidance for business and job decisions.

Grace and Peace be multiplied to you in Christ!! JeffO
