Our church is in the Watermelon Festival Parade. Lake Blackshear Baptist Church, we’re noisy; we’re loud; we’ll be telling about Jesus.✝️ Father, today we make the decision about tomorrow. Will we worship You or do some other “good thing”?  Worship is the most important thing; encourage us, please, amen.🙏🙏

Visitation team was on shouting ground last night.🎉 Oh, God led us and blessed us✝️. I am worshiping at Blackshear Villas this morning; the ladies put up with my preaching, my singing and my jokes.😇 We need riders on the Lake Blackshear Baptist Church float in the Watermelon Parade tomorrow, call me.😇 Father, this is Your day, help us use it wisely, amen.

Blood work this morning-😠ouch and the Watermelon Parade on Saturday, our church planning to be in it.🎉 It’s part of our outreach ministry.✝️ I have a long list of people with needs.🙏Sometimes as I look at all that is occurring, an old song come to mind, “I can’t feel at home in this world anymore”.🙏 Lord, please come back and deliver us. Oh, I don’t feel at home in this world anymore, amen.🙏

Our church family was involved in ministry yesterday with WOM doing lunch for the campers at the association camp and one of our Brotherhood men cutting the lawn for a lady as she ministers to her mom and dad, and another of our WOM ladies helping them with food.🎉Oh Father, we want to minister to and reach others for You.✝️ Please guide us, help us. We do all in Your name, amen.

What do you do when you can’t do anything? You pray!🙏🙏 When everything else won’t or can’t help, God is still on His Throne, and He keeps the door open 24/7!✝️ All others have limitations, but not the Creator, Sustainer, Deliverer God!🎉 Right now Father, we ask for deliverance, for healing, and for peace in our hearts in Jesus’ name, amen.

Life is filled with moments of great joy. Yesterday, three more came to be part of the church family.🎉🎉 Then early this morning, I learned that a precious lady in our church (saw her yesterday in the hospital) had taken “a turn for the worst”. Now, she’s in the ICU.🙏🙏 Oh Father, we need You in all the moments in this life, we cannot make it without You.✝️ Help us, guide us by Your Holy Spirit, in Jesus’ name, amen.

It’s ”Daddy’s Day”; that’s what I call my daddy, not father. Oh, I still miss him and think about him every day. I remember the things he did for me (taught me to tie my tie) and the things he taught me😇. Call your “daddy” today; I wish I could✝️. At Lake Blackshear Baptist Church today, we honor all fathers and two faithful servants who are moving away.✝️ The message today is “No Condemnation”. Come worship, amen.

Sunday is the day set aside for worship:✝️ Will we do that? Do we sometimes put God second to good things? What is the most important thing in my life? That is what I will worship.✝️ Often when we talk to people about worshiping, they have a litany of really good things they are doing. Putting good things ahead of God,✝️I’ve been guilty. Father, help us, to put You, our Creator, our Saviour first in our lives, amen?
#comehomeatlbbc

Lord, I’m always asking You for healings, deliverances, and all good things! But right now, I just want to thank You, to praise You, to bring glory to Your matchless Name!✝️ Thank You for being our Saviour and Lord and for all of Your blessings, amen, amen.🙏🙏

On the road yesterday, Deacon and I visited a member near Albany (who’s living with his daughter now) then we headed to Crisp Regional to visit a faithful servant. At the hospital, (I saw so many staff and volunteers that I hadn’t seen since Covid), I prayed with another faithful servant whose daughter died at Emory.🙏🙏  I then had prayer meeting, choir practice, and a dozen phone calls.😇 No one had to rock me to sleep.😀 Father, so many need You, for healing, deliverance and guidance, oh we lift them up to You, amen.
#comehomeatlbbc

Thought I would have to have my phone surgically removed from my ear yesterday;😅 the calls continued until last nite✝️! I go back to the days, when you picked up the phone and the operator would say, “Number, please”.😇 Father, thank You for the new technology and the opportunity to use it for You.✝️ Lord, keep my phone busy today, amen.
#comehomeatlbbc

Got my plate loaded, my wagon full🙄 with so many things to do, so many people who need prayer and help with an encouraging word.✝️ Psalm 46:10 reminds us to be busy, no, to be still and know that He is Lord! Father, in our busyness help us to find quiet time with You, to “be still” and know You as Lord, amen.
