Wonderful Sunday



Yesterday we were very pleased to have Karl Berg speak at our church as our pastor is away at a conference. Karl is an incredible musician with several Cd's available. He leads praise and worship as well when he comes and it is such a powerful experience. When he speaks he combines the sermon with his songs and it is unique and so encouraging to hear him. One of the things he said that really touched me was that he said that we should throw away all the ideas of who God is that we have been taught by this book or that book, or this person or that person and take time to really get to know Him on our own. That we should spend time in prayer and conversation with Him. Really open ourselves up to Him and have a desire to truly know who He is.

He also talked about the difference between a servant and a son. He said a servant serves out of duty and fear, a son serves out of love and a desire to serve. We are children of God and should act like it.

It was a really uplifting morning!
