Fall kick-off!
'ello there Foundry Youth and friends!
We are having our fall kick-off at Summerlake Park this coming Saturday, starting at about 4:00, starting out near the covered area by the dog park =D
Snacks, games, sports, scavenger hunt, devos etc.
After that, (at about 6,) everyone that can make it is invited back to the Stevens' for hot dogs, foosball, & Wii.
Let's give summer one last hurrah!
1 John 4:11
Dear friends, since God so loved us, we also ought to love one another.
1 John 1:3
We proclaim to you what we have seen and heard, so that you also may have fellowship with us. And our fellowship is with the Father and with his Son, Jesus Christ.

A clamor in you whisper...
I grow tired of writing songs
While people listen but never hear what's really going on now Tell me what's so wrong now
Clap your hands all ye children
There's a clamor in your whispering
Clap your hands tonight
Hear what the silence screams
Clap your hands
Clap your hands now all ye children
Clap your hands all ye children
There's a clamor in your whispering tonight
For most of men believe hell is never knowing who they are now (Tell me who you are now) Finally saved from the outside trapped in what you know Are you safe from yourself? Can you escape all by yourself?
Clap your hands all ye children
There's a clamor in your whispering
Clam your hands tonight
Hear what the silence screams
Clap your hands
Clap your hands now all ye children
Clap your hands all ye children
There's a clamor in your whispering tonight.

My statement of the day:
The things we say that we don't mean leave Silence in praise's place. The Bible says the silence will scream- if we don't worship, something else will.
Do you need to be a Fanatic?
---YES---
Pray 3 times a day?
---NO---
PRAY CONTINUALLY
Prayer, talking to God, isn't bowing your head etc.
It's to be continual. Unending. Every choice we make, everything we do or say is to be worship to God through our lives.
There is no such thing as an 'on again, off again,' relationship with God. Either He's in control, or you won't give it to him. It's easier said than done, I know. But we are to 'pray continually.' That doesn't mean we need to give up and hermitize ourselves- it means our lives- in but not of the world- are to be lived, with God working through everything. Our mistakes, our choices, our love... our whole lives.
That is what praying continually means =)
