What's your story?

Yesterday went well. Rory seemed back to his normal self. The worship team went well. The evening concert was special. And today is the day to stay home and get caught up in other areas that have taken a backseat last week.

We've just had our last message in a series from "The Purpose Driven Life" by Rick Warren. The last purpose is about sharing our story with others. Oprah once said that everyone has a story. And the popularity of reality shows attests to how much we love watching the stories of other's - even if just a segment of a person's life in a manufactured setting.

The song our team will be working on for next Sunday is about our story. Avalon's "Testify to Love" is talking of how God's love has impacted our life in such a huge way and how we will spend our lives testifying to it - telling the story of God's love in our lives. There's no more amazing story than that - how a Creator God loves his creation..you and I...so much that there is nothing He wouldn't do to bring us into a relationship with Him. I'm thinking I'll share a bit of my story here in the next couple of days.
