We Are Moving!

This blog is still under construction (Would you like to help set it up? R u good at Photoshop?) but in the next few weeks we hope to have it up and running full speed!

Our new new campus will be on Mill Plain & Parkcrest (705 SE Parkcrest) business park. We hope to begin building our staging and other key areas in the next couple of weeks.

If you wish to volunteer or have ideas (especially prayers) please email Pastor Bruce at Brucea@livinghopechurch.com

Thoughts:

"Don't get anxious about life", says Jesus! (Matthew 6:25)

My old English buddy, Oswald, had this thought about what we focus on: "Be careful about one thing only," says our Lord, "your relationship to Me."

  • Do I have any competing concerns right now?
  • What "needs" have invaded my consciousness today?
Lust is fed by the belief that I must, I need to, have "this" right now! Lust includes people, things, and thoughts: I'd like to have Arizona weather right now -here! I'd love to have no more worries about the economy; and I yes, I really do need that Red Bull right now (I'm so tired)!
  • Is there someone close to me that I expected to be "perfect" because I really need . . . (a break . . . to have some support . . . to be heard . . .)?
  • What have I been tempted to think needs to change in order for me to be OK?
Philippians 4:6 "Don’t worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank him for all he has done. 7 Then you will experience God’s peace, which exceeds anything we can understand. His peace will guard your hearts and minds as you live in Christ Jesus."

Have you ever read Oswald Chambers devotional?
