Happy New Year 2010!!!

Here are my message notes for this past weekends message entitled, “525,600 Mins.”  Feel free to leave your comments and questions to this message.  I hope it was encouraging and challenging for you in the year ahead.

- “How will you spend your time in 2010?”

- “Don’t get busier than God.”  (Ill. – Starving Baker)

Luke 10:38-42

Jesus – was speaking – loving (v.39)

Mary – was listening – being/spending time with God (v.39)

Martha – was distracted – doing (v.40)

Q – Is there anything in your life that is causing you to take your eyes of Jesus?

Jesus is saying, – “Spending time with me, is most important.”

Our intimacy with God, is more important than our activity for God.

(Ill. – bringing home flowers to my wife)

“The best use of our life is love.  The best expression of our love is time.  The best time to love is now.” – Rick Warren

Matthew 7:21-23/John 15:5 – This is a very serious issue – knowing God vs. knowing a lot about God.

Stop doing and start listening.
