Ever felt like you were so far stuck in a pattern of sin and disobedience that it seems impossible to get out of it?
Ever feel like there is just too much and it is just not worth the effort to change?
Ever feel like it is just to hard to follow all the rules all the time?
Ever feel like the pattern that you are stuck in has so much momentum that you just can't pull out of it?
Come this Wednesday to midweek at Calvary E. Free and see what you can do about it....

Am I invisible?
So, do I have anything worth saying that anyone else would want to read? That is a good question and one worth pondering. I remember hearing Bill Hybels say once, and I will have to paraphrase cause I am not good at word for word quoting, that as a leader you should be able to learn something from anyone. I tend to agree. If you spend enough time with someone and you are asking the right questions you can learn something from anyone.
I remember spending time at a shelter for the homeless or struggling and I gleaned so much wisdom from the people that were there. It may have come from an angry at the world person or a genuine heart of "help me I made some mistakes" but it was refreshing and real. I can remember learning from children, from teens, from the sick as well as the educated (sometimes the over educated). You don't have to have a piece of paper hanging on your wall to have permission to pass on wisdom from the things you learn as you walk through life. You and I are not invisible. Though it may seem like it at times. Always remember that Jesus sees you, he notices you, he loves you and he cares for you. He is interested in what you have to say.
So, Do I have anything to say that may be worth hearing? Probably. It may not be what you were looking for but if you have enough patience you could learn from a cricket I suppose.
Tomorrow night we will kick off a series called "The Invisibles" for our midweek program at Calvary. Come and give us your 2 cents worth.
