P.S. "Remember"

P.S. One last not-so-random thought before we get back to Yancey's book on prayer (funny how this was touched on yesterday both in the sermon and in Sabbath School--go Trina and Olya!).

If you worry that you can't remember those last texts (and others) when you need 'em...stand by for another gratuitous shout-out to the fellas of the men's group...(Fellas! :-) In said august gathering we have lots of passages that seem to come up repeatedly, and thanks to our brother Ellis this one has become one of the classics--it's John 14:26 (right before John 14:27 above, in case you missed it) and yeah, it addresses our (sometimes? usually?) balky memory:

"But the Counselor, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, will teach you all things and will remind you of everything I have said to you."

So there you have it--we talked about God's Word and His Spirit's ability to allow us to see things more clearly (especially within ourselves--not always an easy thing--or maybe it's just me :-), and we talked about His recipe for peace (the good stuff--not that cheap counterfeit the world gives), and if you forget any of it, don't worry, He says He'll even remind you. How cool is that?

You've been prayed for today...
