SNOW STORM! Shabbat Shalom!
/Shabbat Shalom!
You know you are in Colorado when one day you are wearing shorts and a tee shirt and it's 88 degrees and the next morning you wake up to freezing temperatures and 3 inches of snow (so far) on the ground! Well, its Springtime in the Rockies! I have been keeping my eye on the weather and we are expecting 13 inches of snow here in Genesee before this storm moves out tomorrow afternoon. SHABBAT SERVICES FOR MAY 21ST ARE CANCELLED! ALSO, THE SEAN FEUCHT EVENT, ‘LET US WORSHIP’ THAT HAD BEEN SCHEDULED FOR BOULDER ON SATURDAY HAS BEEN POSTPONED UNTIL SATURDAY, JUNE 4TH. As you know, I don’t like to cancel services! However, we want everyone to be safe and we don’t know what the roads will be like in the morning. Stay safe and warm!
I have been hearing a lot lately about the word ‘ALIGNMENT”, it’s not a new buzz word or new theology that we have to hear the latest podcast about. Actually, its quite specific and simple (not easy though!), it is defined as “the proper positioning or state of adjustment of parts in relation to each other”. You know when your wheels are out of alignment in your car because it shakes and shimmies at a certain speed. As children of God in covenant relationship with the God of the Universe, we are able to stay ‘in alignment’ with Him because of the blessings and promises of the New Covenant! The Apostle Peter says, “His divine power has given us everything we need for life and godliness, THROUGH THE KNOWLEDGE OF HIM WHO CALLED US BY HIS OWN GLORY AND VIRTUE.” In the next few weeks as we continue our series on becoming Giant Slayers, we will explore two keys to walking in alignment. Hearing His voice and remembering His promises in the midst of competing voices is crucial in an upside down world that desires to derail you and me from what Father desires. So, next week we will look at something so basic, that its often overlooked, HOW TO HEAR HIS VOICE!
