The first Sunday is always my favorite. I absolutely love seeing the Nations walk into the sanctuary. To know families have followed the Great Commission to the ends of the earth is almost overwhelming. Such a blessing to see!
This year Dana
Wilson, a sweet woman of God I had the opportunity to meet while serving this
summer in Bolivia, is coming back! I am
so excited to see her and to hear how the Lord has been at work in
Bolivia. This year will be such a great
conference!
It also time,
time to remember:
Psalms 96 “1Oh sing to the LORD a
new song; sing to the LORD, all the earth! 2 Sing to the LORD, bless his
name; tell of his salvation from day to day. 3 Declare his glory among the nations, his
marvelous works among all the peoples! 4 For great is
the LORD, and greatly to be praised; he is to be feared above all gods. 5 For all the gods of the peoples are worthless
idols, but the LORD made the heavens. 6 Splendor and
majesty are before him; strength and beauty are in his sanctuary.
7 Ascribe to the LORD, O families of the peoples, ascribe to the LORD glory and strength! 8 Ascribe to the
LORD the glory due his name; bring an offering,
and come into his courts! 9 Worship the LORD in the splendor of holiness; tremble
before him, all the earth! 10 Say
among the nations, "The LORD reigns! Yes, the world is
established; it shall never be moved; he will judge the peoples
with equity." 11 Let the heavens be glad, and
let the earth rejoice; let the sea roar, and all
that fills it; 12 let the field exult, and everything in
it! Then shall all the trees of the forest sing for joy 13
before the LORD, for he comes, for he comes to judge the earth.
He will judge the world in righteousness, and the peoples in his faithfulness.”
(Italics added by author, ESV)
It is time to be
reminded of the Lord’s faithfulness. It
is time to look at the stones of remembrance we built and be encouraged by the
work the Lord has done.
