Home Away

I can say that God is always seeking to secure us in His grace and His love.  We met up with Cowboy Church and now attended our first service with them.  It was quite a wonderful time.  They just upgraded from a dirt floor in the last few months!
The body of Christ was so friendly, loving and considerate toward us.  It reminds me so much of the wonderful bunch of people God has brought together back East, at Crossroads Calvary.  There is something to be said about the love of God and His people!  I miss my family, but thankfully, till we return, God has blessed us with a family here.
Pastor Bubba introduced me by saying this, "Well, today we have some guests with us from New Jersey.  You can tell that they must get a lot of snow up there."  I replied, "about 36" right now!"  He said, "I don't mean that, but you can tell that they get a lot of snow by just looking at the front row, their all his kids!  This man must get snowed in quite a bit!"
It was a wonderful experience.  Pastor Bubba asked if we would sing a bit, so I couldn't refuse the opportunity to glorify the name of our Lord in song.  Rick and I sang a couple songs that we wrote, the people were extremely blessed!
God has sent us here, not only an answer to prayer for us to find a church family, but also answering prayer for them as well.  They are in need of finishing the bathrooms in the church.  To date, they have a porta john for the men and an outhouse for the ladies!  The new bathrooms need the electric, drywall, paint, tile, fixtures set, etc.  They haven't had anyone there that knew what to do at this point.  Just as well, we are looking for ways to be of use for the Lord and His ministry, so I offered up our abilities to help them over the next few weeks.  Pray that we get much done!
