This past Sunday (June 3, 2018), we at CCH celebrated our 1st year anniversary of worshipping in our own building. Now, for some, that may not seem like a big deal; but for those of us who can recall the weekly regiment of setting up and tearing down sound equipment, chairs, and other items for worship, this was a huge deal! In the past year, we have seen extraordinary growth, as the sovereign hand of the Lord has guided, provided, and empowered us to do a great work for him! To say we are both humbled and grateful is but an understatement.
But whereas this has been a great year, I’m still convinced we have far greater things to accomplish and far greater work to do. Yes, I’m grateful for every soul that has been saved, every family that has been restored, and every miracle that has been manifested. But I’ve got to tell you: we still have a tremendous task at hand if we are going to win our community to Jesus! But I believe we can do it! God is going to both empower and equip us to do his work, because it is simply that: HIS work, not ours! We are his instruments, but he is the builder.
So let me encourage you today, whatever God calls you to, don’t be afraid to step into! He has a great plan ahead! He may not lay out all the details or tell you how everything is going to work out; but I’ll assure you, if God’s in it, it will work every time!
