Just a Note

What is that one desire/dream you need to let go of to better follow the Lord Jesus Christ?

Abraham Lincoln: “I believe the will of God prevails; without Him all human reliance is vain; without the assistance of that Divine Being; with that assistance I cannot fail.”

“Importance of Connection”

Larry Crab: “The problem beneath our struggles is a “disconnected soul.” We are disconnected from self, others, and from God.”

Connection Points...

1. One Head (2 Corinthians 13:11 & Philippians 2:2) - one in mind
2. One Heart (Luke 10:27) - love God, others & self
3. One Hand (1 Corinthians 10:31)- one in action
