2012 - A year of change for America.    Thank you to all the service men and women who fought and died for our freedom in America.  Thank you to an Almighty, loving God who has not taken His hand off of America.  Yet.  It's not too late to return to the values that made our nation great.

No matter how long I've trusted in Jesus, His Word always sends reminders that we all need. At Issue - Sin
Isaiah 30:12-18

Have you noticed how we often try to fix or deal with sin on our own? We attempt to clean things up, sort them out and make them right-then bring them to God. Perhaps we fear that God will respond to our sin as people would: with anger, disgust or rejection. But that's not God. He longs to be gracious to us. He is eager to show compassion. Skip the frenzied activity; instead, come to him in repentance and rest, in quietness and trust. You will be amazed at the blessings he heaps on those who wait for him.

What a great week to have revival.  I went to St. Augustine, Florida on Sunday and Tuesday to sing in a revival at Moultrie Baptist Church.  The revival, which has one more day, is being led by David Burton, Director of Evangelism for the Florida Baptist Convention.  What a great Word he is bringing to the unsaved and to the Moultrie Church family.  I know I left Sunday on fire for the Lord.  It was a pleasure to sing a duet with my sister in Christ, Donna Leigh Hinkley (www.donnaleighworship.com).

I loved this statement that David shared with us tonight:  "Jesus hung on a cross, for my hang-ups."  I will remember that always.

Kaleb had a wonderful time playing Upwards Basketball. This was his first experience with group sports. Some of the Memorable Moments: During the last game one of Kaleb’s shots went over the backboard, hit the pole on the back of the basketball hoop, bounced back over the backboard, hit the rim of the hoop and WENT IN! What an awesome moment ~ We were all biting nails waiting to see what that ball was going to do. Each week, I loved watching Kaleb run out onto the court as his name was announced …

We were all saddened by the news of the passing of Whitney Houston.  Even with the struggles she had endured the last 10-20 years, I believe she is now resting in the arms of our dear Savior.
