Uncommon Faith

Thanksgiving provides some time to slow down a little bit and enjoy the blessings we have in life. From the book "Words of Gratitude for Mind, Body, and Soul" written by Robert Emmons (professor at U.C. Davis) and Joanna Hill, comes this quote by Sarah Ban Breathnach:

Both abundance and lack exist simultaneously in our lives, as parallel realities. It is always our conscious choice which secret garden we will tend . . . when we choose not to focus on what is missing from our lives but are grateful for the abundance that’s present – love, health, family, friends, work, the joys of nature and personal pursuits that bring us pleasure – the wasteland of illusion falls away and we experience Heaven on earth.

Let’s continue to tend the secret garden of abundance, focusing our attention on the good things of life instead of the trials.

I’m looking forward to a great time with you as we worship together on Sunday. Uncommon Faith is the theme of the day and I am believing God to help us grow in our ability to have faith for breakthroughs in life.

Also, Friday night our High School football team will be playing a semi-final playoff game at 7:00 pm in our football stadium. Come early for a great BBQ dinner at 6:00 pm and enjoy the evening with our CCS family.

Luke 1:37 "For nothing is impossible with God."
