Monday’s thoughts

AUGUST 26: Sermon title will be “Once Upon A Time, There Was….”

Scriptures: Ecclesiastes 9:11-12

Mark 1:14-15

Emphasis: We will sing at the beginning of the sermon “This Is The

Day”, a verse out of the Psalms. It also becomes the basis

for the message. I want to stress how we do not honor or

respect the present moment. We get wrapped up in our

yesterdays and fantasies for our tomorrows, and often take

the HERE and NOW for granted, or just plain miss it!

The scriptures remind us to “be very present” with ourselves

and others. As the Hebrew prophet who wrote Ecclesiastes

says, “no one knows when his/her time will come”. We do not

need a lot of left overs or “wish I would of’s”. It is

time to take care of business, which means getting our

priorities straight.

I look forward to seeing you Sunday.
