Building Relatinships in the name of Jesus


During the week Coats Baptist enjoyed time together as a team and with the fellow Honduran brothers and sisters. And some who were not brothers and sisters as we found out throughout the week. Jose and Drew were visiting with the neighbors across the street and found out they were not Christians. So Jose and Drew shared the gospel of Jesus Christ with the family and gave them a New Testament bible. The guys they were mixing mortar with all week were not Christians as well. Drew spent time talking to them and sharing with them his testimony and the consequences of not having Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior. Laura and Eric from two different military backgrounds came together as one and cooked up some pancakes one morning for the team. They were amazingly well as chefs in the kitchen. Thank you guys for serving our country. Each evening we shared God's word and God moments. It is always beautiful to sit in a room with fellow Christians sharing God's word and reflecting on how blessed we are to be followers of Jesus Christ. One night Pastor Jesse shared Jesus is simply all we need, nothing else matters. Yet in life sometimes we have too much stuff which gets in our way of just simply being with Jesus. Being still and listen for that still quiet voice. in 1 Kings 19:12 "Came a gentle whisper" to Elijah. Elijah reached out to God and God spoke to him in a gentle whisper. Let's be able to hear that gentle whisper by taking time to be still and know our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
