Walking with the King

God is faithful. Saturday morning I had the opportunity to pray with some young men in our church. God granted me the privilege of true fellowship with Matt, Josh & Alex. In early afternoon i traveled to Chelsea at the invitation of my longtime friend and brother in the Lord, Doug, who participates in an outreach to street people there. Doug is a true warrior of the cross, one who has persevered through suffering. Also had the joy of seeing our brother Steve, whom i had not seen for two years. His enthusiasm for Christ is a wonderful thing, and he continues faithful in sharing the gospel of Christ. Our Lord blessed me yet again in allowing me to sit next to a first grade girl who had lost a number of her front, baby teeth, but whose adult teeth had not grown in. She had a sweet smile created by God. Blessed also to see the faithfulness of our brothers Reuben and Carlos, and the team that works with them in ministering Christ in word and deed.

Saturday evening I returned home to gather with the saints here. God gave me an opportunity to share about the ministry of the Holy Spirit in revealing the truth of the Word of God to us. A number of the group are memorizing Scripture verses. Mine was 2 Thess 2:13 "But we bound to give thanks alway to God for you, brethren beloved by the Lord, for God hath from the beginning chosen you to salvation through sanctification of the Spirit and belief of the truth." (KJV) Several are also working on the books of the Bible in order. This facilitates following along in Bible studies.
This morning trekked to Cambridge to enjoy fellowship with my home house church. Steve & Donna came to cross-pollinate for which we are very grateful. Donna has a gift in the facilitation of worship while Steve shared from the Word. Ross & Trina gave us words from the Lord about examining ourselves. "Examine yourselves, to see whether you are in the faith. Test yourselves. Or do you not realize this about yourselves, that Jesus Christ is in you?- unless indeed you fail to meet the test." (2 Cor. 13:5 ESV)
