Pastor’s Pen
God doesn’t have a habit of pointing out who we think we are. He doesn’t point out what the inner voice of our conscience says about us, either from our inferiority or our arrogance. Furthermore, God does not repeat what the accuser of the brothers says about us. When God points out who we are, it will always be from His eternal perspective, from Kingdom values, and from what He has written in our books about us.
A great example of this is Gideon. Judges 6:12 says, When the angel of the Lord appeared to Gideon, he said, “The Lord is with you, mighty warrior.” What is so cool about the passage, is Gideon felt like anything but a mighty warrior, so God was not pointing out to Gideon how (Gideon) saw himself, but how God saw him.
How does God see you? I am confident that God sees you as a Kingdom man or woman ready to take on great exploits, because if God is for us who can be against us.
Father: teach us to listen to how you see us from your eternal perspective.
Looking forward to praying with you tonight and seeing you this weekend.

Announcing Staff Addition
We are pleased to announce that Barrett Friese will be joining our staff as a summer Student Ministries Intern. Barrett is a student at Moody Bible Institute preparing for ministry and we are excited that he will be a part of our ministry this Sunday. Let’s make Barrett feel welcome and watch for events where Barrett is involved.
Relocation/Building Fund
Let’s be in prayer for our Feasibility Team as they seek possible future locations for Grace Fellowship in order to plan and manage our kingdom growth and also for the growth of our Building Fund.
Our Present Building Fund Balance is $288,107.
Night of Prayer
All of Grace Fellowship is invited to an evening of prayer (accompanied by fasting if you choose) on Wednesday night May 26 at 6:30. The focus of our time of prayer will be listening to God as to what His plan is for us as a church as we look toward relocation and the future.
Of course in this season all of us are encouraged to be in prayer and in fasting. We need to hear from the Lord. Check out Isaiah 50:4
Casa por Cristo
We have a team of folks going to the Dominican Republic in early June to build a house for a family in need. This family’s home has been destroyed by termites, including their beds and dining table. Our team wants to gift a dining table and some bedding to them while they are there. If you would like to help cover the expense of these items, we will be receiving a special love offering. Simply mark your gift DR Family. The total needed is a little more than $1000.
