Revelations from the Revealer

I can hardly believe that it is wednesday again already! This week seems to have flown by. We had our own little Thanksgiving last week. We were STUFFED! We have been job hunting, reading, sewing, and exploring ALABAMA! 20 applications later, eric still hasn't found a job. Prayerfully though, in the next couple weeks we'll hear something.

Tomorrow night the Ramp's Christmas play begins, called "Searching For Christmas". It is the 3rd-6th, so hopefully one night we'll get to go. The community has been practicing and preparing a lot--so we are excited to see what they've put so much time into. The Sunday night service was really powerful. We had a fire tunnel and went through asking for another filling from the Holy Spirit. Damon talked about how vital it is for our Christian lives to stay filled and get refilled by the Holy Spirit. One thing about just being in Gods presence...sometime you don't feel any thing. Sometimes you don't have this great emotional experience. But, when you've been in His presence things change. The Holy Spirit has just been revealing things to us about our hearts and about the Word and about Jesus that we have never known. It is an amazing feeling. I just want my heart to be soft and full of passion for Jesus. Passion that will wake me up in the night. Passion that will bring a song in the middle of the day. Passion that compels me to love.

Please keep praying for us and the community here in Hamilton. Know that you are often on our hearts and in our prayers. Keep seeking first the Kingdom and His righteousness!! May Jesus and what Hes done for us never leave our thoughts.

"God, may we never be so educated, may we never be so mature, may we never be so religious that we see your passion without tears."
