Priority 

June 20, 2016

God’s Word and your prayer should be the priority in your life. Get up 15 minutes early everyday to spend time alone with God and your day will go much smoother. If you are not in the habit of having devotions early in the morning, try it and see how you will be blessed.

Proverbs 8:17 I love them that love me; and those that seek me early shall find me.

Peace Be Still

June 6, 2016

Mark 4:39And he (Jesus) arose, and rebuked the wind, and said unto the sea, Peace, be still. And the wind ceased, and there was a great calm.

Residents of Florida and the East Coast are preparing for a tropical storm named Colin. June 1st, hurricane season starts. Many people fear these storms and it is right to take precautions, however, as Christians we know that the Lord is in control.

We also have “storms” in our lives for which we have no control, but He is the only One who can control every situation with those words, “Peace be still.” Whatever the storm is for you today or in the future if it be physical, mental or spiritual turn to Jesus to calm your fears and bring peace to your heart.

Love One Another

May 24, 2016

Church sign:  LOVE is so nice to RECEIVE, but far more rewarding to GIVE.

1 John 3:23 And this is his commandment, That we should believe on the name of his Son Jesus Christ, and love one another, as he gave us commandment.

Present with the Lord

May 19, 2016

Today my much loved husband’s body will be buried. He is not dead but more alive now than he ever has been here on earth. We who are left will shed tears today because will will miss him, but we know he is with the One he loved the most, Jesus.

2 Corinthians 5:8 We are confident, I say, and willing rather to be absent from the body, and to be present with the Lord.


Jesus, Our Rock

May 16, 2016

The month of May is extremely busy. Graduations, celebrations and much activity. There is also the sting of sickness and loosing a loved one. In families there are joys and sorrows at the same time. Life seems like a roller coaster and emotions are high and low, but there is one thing that is consistent, the love of Jesus. 

He is the rock that keeps us steady. He is the One who is with us in every situation. 

1 Corinthians 10:4  And did all drink the same spiritual drink: for they drank of that spiritual Rock that followed them: and that Rock was Christ.

Present with the Lord

May 15, 2016

Today my spouse, best friend, amazing Christian, Tom Curtis went home to be with his Lord and Savior, Jesus.

He was ready and willing to go after a long illness. He was a faithful witness and soul winner. The last day he was in the hospital he led a doctor and 2 nurses to the Lord. Many tears were shed that day as hospital doctors, nurses and staff stopped by to say goodbye to a man they learned to love and respect after his month long hospital stay. He was able to come home to leave the earth from his favorite place the sun porch where he was able to watch the birds and squirrels.

He will truly be missed by me, his family, friends and partners in SOS Events ministry. Please pray for those of us who feel the loss but rejoice that there is no more pain and suffering and that the ministry will continue to grow and flourish.

 “We are confident, I say, and willing rather to be absent from the body, and to be present with the Lord.”            1 Corinthians 5:8

Peace be Still

May 6, 2016

On Wednesday the sky was dark, thunder, lightning, wind, rain and threat of hail. Not a day that SOS Events could set up a booth at the Flea Market. Every other day this week has been beautiful, sunshine in Florida. Sometimes we wonder why God would let it storm on a day when souls could be saved but He is in control and we trust Him.

Life is like the weather, sometimes our days are full of sunshine and other times there are storms. We are quick to Praise Him in the good times but when the trials come, do we Praise Him then? 

Jesus is willing and able to still the storm in our lives just as He said to the sea, “Peace be still” and immediately the storm stopped. He is with us in the sunshine and He is with us in the storms. He will never leave us or forsake us, so yes, we do need to Praise Him in the storms of life.

If this is a time in your life that you are going through a storm allow the Word of God and the Holy Spirit to bring peace to your troubled heart. Remember, there is always sunshine after the rain.

Mark 4:39 And he arose, and rebuked the wind, and said unto the sea, Peace, be still. And the wind ceased, and there was a great calm.

My Hope

April 19, 2016

My hope is built on nothing lessThan Jesus’ blood and righteousness.

I dare not trust the sweetest frame,

But wholly trust in Jesus’ Name.
Refrain
On Christ the solid Rock I stand,

All other ground is sinking sand;

All other ground is sinking sand.
When darkness seems to hide His face,

I rest on His unchanging grace.

In every high and stormy gale,

My anchor holds within the veil.
Refrain
His oath, His covenant, His blood,

Support me in the whelming flood.

When all around my soul gives way,

He then is all my Hope and Stay.
Refrain
When He shall come with trumpet sound,

Oh may I then in Him be found.

Dressed in His righteousness alone,

Faultless to stand before the throne.
Refrain

This wonderful old hymn is so true. Jesus is everything to the Christian. In Him we put all our hope. He is our rock and our salvation.

1 Thessalonians 5:9

For God hath not appointed us to wrath, but to obtain salvation by our Lord Jesus Christ,
