4/29/2012 Notes and Quotes

Sermon:  Desire:  De = of,  sire = father

Psalm 37:4  King James Version (KJV)

Mens notes:

Joel 2:25:  http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=joel%202:25&version=NKJV
New King James Version (NKJV)
25 “So I will restore to you the years that the swarming locust has eaten,
The crawling locust,
The consuming locust,
And the chewing locust,[a]
My great army which I sent among you."

Our fathers cut and define (weightlifting terms) who we are
Our men's group job is:  To keep a continuing spiritual legacy going
We all want to move to the next level
But to go to the next level, we need to learn from our mistakes
The Lord began and is developing a relationship at our level and on our terms
We need to strenghten relationships in our lives at the other person's level and on their terms

Manhood:  Being everything God wants you to be.

These are prayers that I pray regularly:

Lord, create in me a clean heart and renew a right spirit in me.

Lord, make me the man you want me to be.
...the husband you want me to be,
...the father you want me to be,
...the son you want me to be.
