Bible In A Minute - barats and bereta
As I watched this. It was funny, however I thought to myself how our world is all about "Getting it now", "Learn Fast", and "Summerize everything". Don't be in a hurry to understand GOD's word. I expect to read and re-read the Bible again and again, and I know I will never be an expert and know everything in the Bible. But what I will gain is a closer focused relationship with GOD as I continue to learn, study and ask questions. So dont be in a hurry.

Still on a High from worship night
As the event neared, many of the people I spoke with who going to attend were anticipating the wonderful music they will get to sing, the opportunity to have a good time with friends, and have fun like anyone would in a concert. But it really is much more than that, here is where it hit me.
5 mins prior to the start of the event we prayed, our worship pastor said something that stuck in my head. "This is another opportunity for Christians to renew their relationship with GOD" Once I heard that, my perspective changed about the event and began to think of other reasons . The opportunity to build, to encourage, to strengthen your relationship with GOD.
When people were standing in the long line waiting for some good music, ready to have a good time with friends, and just have fun like anyone would in a concert........They walked out afterwards RENEWED, they felt ENCOURAGED, they were STRENGTHENED in their relationship with GOD.
How do I know? (I am sure you are thinking)......I walked out of the room I was serving in and stood for a minute or two to watch peoples faces and their expressions as they exited the building. I saw tears, happiness, joy, blessed thanks for the opportunity to praise and glorify our GOD Almighty that evening!
