On Sunday 3/13/2011 we had our first CORE meeting for the Silverton Church plant. I have to admit, it was better than I had even expected. We started out by eating together and then went into a sweet time of worship. It seemed like God was in the house. J So many people that were there shared. It seemed like there were some clear things being spoken. One person had a picture of the prodigal coming home, and felt like that was for this church plant. Several people echoed that. I felt very clear that God wants to do a work in us, in the group, and that work in our hearts would spread over into the community. One person shared that they felt like they were called to help support the leadership, like Mose and the battle where he had to have his hands held up. Another theme of the night was the call of this new body to work with children in a way that prepares them for life in Christ.
There were other words spoken, but these seemed to be the theme of the night to me. I am so excited to continue to go deeper, personally, as a group, and as a community. Things seem to be stirring all around, it’s amazing to see God on the move. He is touching people, restoring the broken and his children, calling the lost, and we get the blessing of joining with Him on this journey.
Scriptures:
Psalm 40 1-3 with the focus on, “He establishes our steps.”
Revelation 3:20 “Behold I stand at the door and knock.” We often read this as for the unbeliever, but this was said for the church. He wants us to open up and give Him all the places of our hearts.
