Fisherman's Prayer: I pray that I may live to fish until my dying day. And when it comes to my last cast,I then most humbly pray, when in the Lord's great landing net and peacefully asleep that in His mercy I be judged BIG ENOUGH TO KEEP!

The Ordained and the rain!

Well it started out blue sky and sunshine here in Texas this morning! But apparently July is starting where June left off..with the rain! I woke up this morning not wanting to get out of bed and get ready for church I kept thinking hey I can just stay at home and watch it on the internet..but then I thought no get up and GO! So i got up and showered and dressed then when making breakfast Bruce was like I have so many things to do today lets safe the drive time and stay home and watch church on the internet! UGH! I told him NO WAY! After showering and all we were going! So we did! and we are very happy we did! Pastor George and Pastor Terri (Kenneth Copeland's daughter) have been on vacation so their son Jeremy has been filling in and giving the services the last few weeks! He is great I really enjoy listening to Jeremy! He is the oldest of all the Copeland grandchildren. Anyway to day we get there expecting to hear Jeremy again..not the case. The Lord blessed us with Kenneth Copeland himself to give the sermon. Then following a very special event took place. Brother Copeland mention in all his 40 years in the ministry he never pushed his children to preach and never laid hands on them as they were ordained. He wanted them to follow God on their own not his influence. But today for the first time he laid hands on someone in his family to ordain them as a reverend of the ministry...it was Jeremy! I cant even explain it how uplifting and blessed experience it was to watch! But back to the rain....because the sun was shining and we had beautiful blue sky's going into church my brilliant husband decided to leave the truck windows down...despite the fact I told him rain was again in the forecast...well two hours later coming out of church its not only raining but its a freaking down pour! Needless to say the truck seats and dashboard were soaked!! Guess its gives new meaning to the Copeland message of Blessed coming in and Blessed going out! LOL!
