It’s All About Me!

This morning we almost packed out the church! Not all that many empty seats which is a huge blessing and encouragement from our God! It was also a wonderful blessing to have evangelist Neil Smith and his family with us this morning, all the way from Rockhampton! We may only be a small church but we have some mighty good preaching coming out each week! The Lord really does provide and bless those that seek Him diligently!

We also had Paul song leading this morning which was a blessing to Jeffrey as he needed a rest and a blessing to the church as well!

Neil Smith shared with us this morning a message from Psalm 77 which he used to teach us a very important main point. We need to take the focus off ourselves and put it onto God! We are all very selfish people (yes, even you reading this and myself writing this post) and we need to be reminded constantly that it’s not all about us. Neil went through Psalm 77 and said that the words ‘me’ and ‘I’ where mention twice as much as ‘God and ‘Lord. And let’s face it, this is entirely true in our own lives.

He also talked about how they are staying on the coast during the holidays and have a High Definition Television in their room which is great but his wife said ‘this TV is so clear, it’s not good for females’. Neil pointed out (and girls, we all know it’s true) that females don’t like to show up their blemishes, especially on their faces, so we cover it up with makeup. Well think about this. God doesn’t focus on the blemishes in our lives! They are not in focus to Him because we ask Him to forgive us of our sins and He is true and right to take them away for us!

Don’t be so self conscious in your life, be God conscious and all those little things that bother you now just won’t be entering your mind or field of vision! Really it’s a win, win!!! Please head over to the website to listen to Neil’s message, you’ll thoroughly enjoy it!

On a side note, I’d like to inform you that this will be the last blog post for the next few weeks as I am going to be away from church a little bit and busy with wedding plans. We should be back to normal around the 24th October but please do drop by now and again and if I do get time I will update! The website will continue to be updated weekly with new sermons to listen to and notices.

Thanks for reading and have a wonderful and safe month!
