Hayride Time10/6/2022

 Good Morning,

My mug is half empty now and It is time to refill it with Door County Chocolate Cherry Coffee. I was already outside with our two dogs and the coffee was used to warm up this old body.

1 Thessalonians 5:16-18 Rejoice always, 17.pray without ceasing, 18. give thanks in all circumstances, for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you.

Tonight our Men's Ministry from church is sponsoring  a hayride and bonfire at a local ranch. It is going to be a cold night and I believe the chili dogs, cider and hot chocolate will hit the spot as we fellowship with the heart souls that will come out with us tonight.

It will be a night where we can enjoy the company of old friends and make some new ones. It will be a lot of work for a few of us, but it will be worth it. Anytime of fellowship is never a waste of time. Of course one of our Pastor's will have a short message for the group and who knows what will start and end foe someone with that message. 

The one thing I know for sure is that it everyone there has just completed another week of life. For some it was a great week. For others it was a week just like every week, without much different. For others it might have been a week that they want to forget. Each person has a different experience during this last week.  My prayer for tonight is that this short time together spent with others, makes a great week even better, a mundane week a better one and for those who are hurting it will be some time of peace and comfort. 

To go into this night without prayer would be like going into hell with a squirt gun to extinguish the flames. So today, I am asking all of you to pray for this event and I will let you know how it went tomorrow. The lesson for you today is this. Planning an event is a lot of work but don't forget to pray about it.

God bless,

Marty

  1. Marty, it seems your words hit home with me on a regular basis. I had a hard week - one of the hardest. Thankfully prayer and fellowship has helped me move on and enjoy another great weekend god has provided. Nick L
