A Place For Grace

The theme of our Fall Program is "What's So Amazing About Grace?"  We have enjoyed four wonderful Sunday's and we are very excited about what the Lord is going to do in the next two weeks.

This past weekend, the grace of God was revealed to our church family in a myriad of ways.  Evangelist Otis Duhart was our guest speaker.  Bro. Duhart's life is an great testimony of God's grace.  As a former Florida State University football player, his life "from football to faith" could only be directed by a loving, gracious, Heavenly Father.  On Friday night Bro. Otis preached at a Youth Rally held at our church and fifteen young people experienced God's grace when they accepted Christ as their personal Saviour.  In yesterday morning's service five precious people walked the aisle to receive Christ, and once again, the grace of God was abundant.

During the morning service my in-laws, Reub & Evelyn Ewert, gave a testimony about what God's grace means to them.  Mrs. Ewert is battling Alzheimer's Disease, and our church family has witnessed God's grace in a very real way in their lives and in their marriage.

Last night Tommy & Sara Dennis lost their baby. Space will not permit me to share how God's grace was manifested in their family in the past several days.  It has been amazing to watch.

I'm glad that God's grace is at work in my life and I'm thankful that I'm in a place where His grace is revealed on a regular basis.  I don't want to take that for granted.
