Thankfulness at The Creek

Today I sat around the table with several Creek staffers and talked about our ministry this year.  It has been an incredible season.  This month we will baptize over 20 people and we will average around 1500 in attendance.  When most churches have seen a significant decrease in giving, the generous folks at The Creek have remained faithful in bringing the tithe to the Lord's house.  On Sunday, one of our Elders said that there are two words that describe this year:  "immeasurably more".  Those words come from Ephesians 3:20 when the Lord says that He will do immeasurably more than we ask or even imgaine according to the power that works in us.  God has exceeded our expectations.

I believe that God wants to do the same in our personal lives.  He calling us to ask.  When have you prayed for something so big that unless God does it, it won't get done.  Today  as we talked, we said that it was time to enlarge the sanctuary.  We need about 1.5 million dollars to do that.  We need God to do a miracle.  Say a prayer today and ask God to do something "BIG" ... ask him to give you an opportunity to have a spiritual conversation with your lost friend.  Then, ask Him to supply the needs at The Creek.  Together, we will see God do amazing things.
