Go therefore!

This morning I was enjoying the Lord's name!  "Go therefore and disciple all the nations, baptizing them into the NAME!" I had just finished reading Matthew last night and was impressed with the Lord's person.  This morning as I was praying over the last verse, I realized a little more of how precious the Lord's name is. O Lord Jesus! Your NAME!  Your PERSON!  You!

"Christ loved the church"

Ephesians 5:25-27: 
        "Husbands, love your wives even as Christ also loved the church and gave Himself up for her that He might sanctify her, cleansing her by the washing of the water in the word, that He might present the church to Himself glorious, not having spot or wrinkle or any such things, but that she would be holy and without blemish."

Freshman in the Morning

   Aaaah, the sound of freshman in the morning... Orientation still going on and we at Christian Students are up early every day to meet them!
"But to Him who is able to do superabundantly beyond all that we ask or think, to Him be the glory in the church and in Jesus Christ for ever and ever, Amen."

Test Run - Christians on Campus & Christian Students Workshop Report

   Just trying this blog thing out.  I've just gotten back from Austin, TX from a Christian Students and Christians on Campus staff and involved students and families workshop (whew, that was a long title!).  And I enjoyed it so much! Praise the Lord for the homes of the believers! Our needs can be met in the homes, we can be supplied and strengthened in the homes, we can be encouraged in the homes, we can be related in the homes!  I just enjoyed the homes!  In a larger group, it's hard to bring something up for prayer.  But in the homes, in the small groups of 3-5, there is the atmosphere for care and love!
   We've had freshman orientation all summer long so far and it's so good to be out representing Christians Students and talking to freshman!  Lord, gain freshman this semester and meet their needs in the homes!
