Yup.
Some of Team Waterford, love all of these people. A grand outreach indeed.
Can I say something to young ladies here? I’m trying to pick my words carefully here. Your husband, whoever he is, single ladies, will have an unbelievable amount of influence over your sons and daughters in regards to spiritual things. If you want your children to love Jesus deeply, hold out for a man that is Godly. And let me tell you this: I am well aware that Godly men are rare. Lots of neat Christian boys, not a lot of Godly men. And we’re working our tails off for you to try to develop some into that. But don’t settle, because it’s better that you be lonely now than you be married and lonely later. Are you tracking with me? It is better that you be lonely now than for you to get married to a man that will teach your kids everything but the way of Jesus.

Every women should read this!
As a woman, I will be the first to admit that I want to be pursued. The female mind has an inherent soft-spot for thoughts and fantasies of being wooed and romanced to rest upon. In the age where “women can do things now,” we try and pretend like we “don’t need no man.” Even then, we mean that we…
I believe in Christianity as I believe that the sun has risen: not only because I see it, but because by it I see everything else.

Conversation with the Lord
“Be still before the Lord and wait patiently for Him” Psalm 37:7
Why is this soo hard?
I know he will reveal his plan to me when I need to know. The problem: I think I need to know right now.
“Fear not, for I am with you; be not dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you, I will help you, I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.” Isaiah 41:10
Ok Lord, I hear you. I am going to trust that through this He will strengthen me, help me, and uphold me. Why? Because that is all I can do.
“Let my soul live and praise you, and let your rules help me.” Psalm 119:175
No matter what is happening in your life today, as a believer in Jesus, you have a reason to be excited about your future! If things seem dark right now, know that the dawn will soon appear. The key is you have to remember that you are not here by accident. You have a purpose and destiny to fulfill, and He isn’t finished with you yet. Your best days are not behind you; your best days are out in front of you.
One thing I know is that God is a God of increase. He has greater things in store for your future than you have experienced in your past. His dream for your future is so much bigger than your own. He wants to take you places that you’ve never dreamed and open up doors that you’ve never imagined. He wants to bring talent out of you that you didn’t even know you had. He wants to increase you and cause you to be a greater blessing to the people around you.
Today, get your hopes up and get excited about your future! Begin to thank Him for what He has in store. Keep standing, keep believing and keep moving forward because God has explosive blessings in store for you!
