As we examine the activities of our day, we might entertain the thought of change. Being willing to let the Lord change us is an important part of our growth. Romans 12:1-2 says, “And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.” In these verses God tells us three things on how we can partner with Him for internal and external change. 1) Present your life, work, and ministry to Him. 2) Don’t follow the pattern of the world, as you might miss out on the radical changes He wants for you and 3) Renew your mind. This can be done by staying in the Scriptures and praying as you seek God’s wisdom for your life.

Something to Think About
April 26, 2018Unconditional Love
April 24, 2018Don’t let your past determine your future. Look to God for the truth. Don’t let the past steal you from the joys of today. The Lord has so much for you. I pray you will take time to read His Word daily and talk to Him through prayer then watch how he will guide you. He wants to walk with you every minute of the day, you are so important to Him. Ask Him to open your eyes to the truth of His unconditional love for you. See yourself through His eyes.
Jeremiah 33:3 (KJV) says, Call unto me, and I will answer thee, and show thee great and mighty things, which thou knowest not.
Encouragement
April 22, 2018Our heavenly Father understands our disappointment, suffering, pain, fear, and doubt. He is always there to encourage our hearts and help us understand that He’s sufficient for all of our needs. When I accepted this as an absolute truth in my life, I found that my worrying stopped. -Dr. Charles Stanley
Fresh Start
April 21, 2018There’s something about starting the day off studying God’s Word, whether it be the opened pages of the Bible or the push of a button on your device. Meditating and making notes as to hide His Words in your heart for use that day.
II Timothy 2:15 says, “Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.”
Jesus Cares
April 18, 2018Brothers and Sisters
April 11, 2018The USA has many dates are set aside to honor special people. April 11, yesterday, was Siblings Day. A time to be thankful for your brothers and sisters. However, some of us do not have siblings or maybe there has been some family disagreements that have kept you apart. Good news, as Christians we have many brothers and sisters in Christ. There is a bond with other Christians that can even be closer than our blood siblings. Let us be thankful for our fellow Christians and appreciate the relationship that we have with them.
1 Thessalonians 4:9 But as touching brotherly love ye need not that I write unto you: for ye yourselves are taught of God to love one another.
Children
April 7, 2018One of God’s greatest blessings is children. If God has blessed you with one or several, He has given you one of the greatest gifts. Along with it comes love and responsibility. Children are a joy and at the same time can cause sorrow. Pray for your children. Thank the Lord for them. Today, the temptations of the world are used by the devil to draw our precious children away from the Lord. We must be diligent in our care for them. Give them an extra hug today and if they are far away send them a message of love.
Psalms 127:3 Lo, children are an heritage of the Lord: and the fruit of the womb is his reward.
Rejoicing on Wednesday
April 5, 2018Richard, a faithful SOS Events soul winner, is rejoicing with this young mother, one of the 15 people that were saved at the Plant City Flea Market yesterday. What a blessing to see hundreds of people come to the Lord every year at this weekly event. Praise the Lord for our faithful soul winners and people who have been saved at this event that is held every Wednesday.

Palm Sunday
March 25, 20182018 Strawberry Festival Ends
March 13, 2018The crowds are gone. Decorations put away until next year and another Strawberry Festival is over. God is so wonderful as He has blessed the SOS Events booth once again. We prayed for 250 decisions or more. The count was 247 (we thought), Then when the decision cards were recorded on the computer there had been a mistake. Final count 253. God answers prayer. Please pray for these new Christians as they receive their Bible Studies, that they will grow and find a good church to attend.
Acts 2:47 Praising God, and having favour with all the people. And the Lord added to the church daily such as should be saved.
