Sunday was great at Freedom! It was just one of those weeks that you look back on and go “that was a great Sunday.” Here is the set list:
- When Love Comes To Town
- Sing, Sing, Sing
- Hosanna
- How He Loves Us
- Love Is Here
We concluded the One Prayer series with Craig Groeschel of lifechurch.tv sharing “God is…love.” Some of the highlights:
- Why would God love someone as bad as me? (Job 42:5-6) It’s much easier to know that God loves you than to think God loves me, because I know all of the bad thoughts, attitudes, and actions I have.
- Why would God love someone so insignificant? There are 6 BILLION people on the planet. I’m not significant at all in the scheme of the world. I’m not a world leader, industry exec, inventor, celebrity, etc. There’s plenty in the world going on for God to overlook me. Heck, there’s plenty in Greenville going on where God could overlook me.
- But God is love. (1 John 4:8-10) Love is not what God does, it’s who God is! For you and I, love is what we do. But God IS love. That is a mind-boggling, incredible thought.
- God’s love covers our sins. (1 Peter 4:8) When Adam & Eve sinned against God in the garden, the Bible says they were naked and ashamed. What did God do? He covered them. Sound familiar? Jesus does the same thing for us. There is NOTHING in your life that can now or EVER fall outside that covering. Now THAT’S love!
- God’s love makes us significant. (Jeremiah 31:3) He is looking for you if you have not become His child yet. Think about that – the God of the universe, the creator of everything, is looking for you. Now how insignificant do you feel?
