I was surfing the WWW and came across a blogsite by Mike Hilliard. He writes: In looking at where God has taken us, we must look to where He is taking us. I guess we must remember the past fondly, live the present boldly and hope for the future passionately. Isn't that a motto to live by! Living an emboldened life... one filled with passion for the days when we will see Him face to face.

Hope there aren't quotas for blessings/miracles. If so, we used one up today. After spending the morning sanding wood patio chairs we lovingly wiped them down with linseed oil. We left the work materials on the patio table so we could give them one more wipe down during the afternoon when the sun wasn't as harsh. We then took Hannah and Nikki to the community pool for some sun and swimming. About

Spring snaps with the most absolute vibrant colors: the hues here captured in front of the church. Take some time to visit the garden in front. Life pushes energetically from the ground displaying her unflinching beauty all in quiet yet unashamed testimony to the Giver of life reminding us from whom we have the privilege of enjoying the beauty of life around us.

Burbank SDA church hosts an Agape feast this coming Friday evening, the 28th of April. The Agape feast was the Eucharistic or communion--celebration of early Christians. While centered on the ritual of the bread and wine, it also included various other ritual elements. Agape is one of the Greek words for love, particularly applied to selfless love. Such meals were widespread, though not

what's your point of view on worship or any aspect of it? worship is a very personal experience. i believe that how you approach worship depends largely on your relationship with God. do you see Him as a stiff, formal, and maybe pompous ruler posting edicts from a high and detached throne? or do you see him as a loving, caring older brother or sister, or a mentor, one with whom you can unfold
