February in Review

February was a very busy month for TOTAL, but it was one of the best months in the class history.  We started off with our missionaries to The Shepherds Household and ended the month with Darren and Jennifer Harris giving their testimony.  As well as having some of you guys give testimony.  We had 2 good events with the first being Open Gym, we had a great time and found out that Ryan has a cannon on his arm when he serves the ball, I'm still feeling the affects : )  Then we ended the month with a Caption Scavenger Hunt which ended up with many unique pictures, and we had a special appearance by the Jonesville Police Dept.  I want to thank you for making February a special month and lets continue to build and make March and the rest of the year better.

Great Class Last Night!

Thank you to everyone that came out to class last night it was a very memorable class, I enjoyed hearing all of the testimonies.  Also thank you to Darren and Jennifer Harris for being a part of the class Darren had a great lesson on the assurance of salvation for us. 
Which makes me want to ask you do you have the 3 traits in your life that lets you know that you are saved?  Have you made a change and took a trend to the Lord?  When you do something wrong do you get convicted, does God whip you?  And do you love fellowship with other believers and enjoy coming to church?  If you can't answer yes to the questions please get it settle and get saved, it would be bad to spend all eternity thinking about what could have been.  If you have doubt remember the verse that Darren used: 
  And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand.  My Father, which gave them me, is greater than all; and no man is able to pluck them out of my Father's hand.  John 10:28-29

Are You Willing and How's Your Faith?

Last night we had our missionaries for The Shepherds Household in class.  Brother Strickland had some great things to say that we can all apply to our lives.  One of the things he said was, God has a purpose for you and that we are all important.  Brother Strickland used his own life as an example of how he didn't like getting in front of people, but God opened doors for him and now he is over a boys home!  The reason why God opened the doors for him is because he was a willing vessel to be used by God in whatever way it took.  I challenge all of us to do the same, and tell God whatever He has in store for our lives we will follow, we just have to be willing. 

Another thing we learned from The Shepherds Household is how we need to put more faith in God.  They are totally faith based and Brother Strickland had lots of examples of how they prayed and God answered it, like the verses say below all we have to do is ask God and he will do it.  We need to learn how to put our self to the side and let God do everything!
Joh 14:13-14  And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son.  If ye shall ask any thing in my name, I will do it.
Joh 15:16  Ye have not chosen me, but I have chosen you, and ordained you, that ye should go and bring forth fruit, and that your fruit should remain: that whatsoever ye shall ask of the Father in my name, he may give it you.
