Life IS Good

Life is so good. We are soo blessed. It is just ringing in my Head.... "Blessing and Honor Glory and Power be unto the ancient of Days". Can hear the inflections and the music going. Ever since our family has moved back to Olathe and started up with Olathe Life Fellowship. our lives have been filled with blessings and good things. God id so awesome and He has made himself evident in such amazing ways. When our family left here and went to Michigan things were so difficult for us. We had such a hard time and so many things seemed to go wrong for us and to go against us. I remember that there were so many of those Sunday school answer Christian-ease type people that would say to, "well that is how you know that you are doing God's will and that God is in this, because Satan is coming against it s strongly " They would say, "God's work is never easy and when things go wrong constantly and it seems unbearable that's when you know you're doing the work of God"
Well, now we have moved back to Olathe and we truly feel in our hearts, in the core of my being, that this is God's will for us and that we are truly involved in God's work, and things are going wonderfully for us. Each day I wake up with a smile and filled with joy. There are countless practical blessings that I can look at and rejoice. More than that I can rejoice and be filled with joy and peace and love and etc even when there arent material things staring me in the face to be thankful for.

All through the book of Philippians there is a theme of Joy. Even Joy in tough times. I am thankful for our tough times in the past because God has taught me so much and I thankful for this time of rejuvenation and blessing. Life Is Good.

I dare you, read the book of Philippians and then try to have self pity and sorrow. If you read it and open your heart and mind to it you cant.



In Christ,
Pastor Geoff
