Reflections From Sunday Evening

Snow - Flurries - More Snow - More Flurries - Snow pack road in front of the church - Parking Lot was good! - Snow on the driveway - Cold -
But ...... The people of God gathered and we had church today. As always the music was great - Thanks Leslie for "Ain't no mountain high enough!" Sounded great and set our context for the "Mountain Destination" sermon. Mountain top experiences are to be cherished - but we don't live on the mountain top forever. I invite you to consider the lessons you have learned from those times in life when God seemed most real and vital. These are the experiences and seasons of lfie that equip us to go back down the mountain and re-engage in the world.
I appreciate Ginger introducing the Wesley Covenant Prayer this morning. We will continue to use this prayer through the month. It's a great prayer and will change your lfie! Look for it in print (or find it in the UM Hymnal) next week.
It's been a good day. Enjoy the snow - looks like more coming this week. But soon the sun will be shining and air warm. Such is the work of God in our world.
blessings,
steve
