Building relationships

Hi folks:

Looking forward to seeing everyone tonight.

I feel that because of some "miscommunications" that I want to just
talk about what I see our Tuesday night for.

I called this Deeper Relationships because I do not want to play
church. This is not "church" but being the church. That means each one
of us brings us to the table. Each one of us has a specific need that
the lord wants us to fill. Our vertical(with God) blessing and
relationship is largely contingent on our horizontal(with one another)
blessing and relationships. And the purpose of Tuesday night is to be
"dating service." I do not expect everyone to get everything out of
Tuesday night. What my heart is, is that you will find someone to
"date." Someone you can connect with during the week. Getting
together and drinking a coffee, or sharing some scripture or praying
for one another. Is that not what our "poll" showed? That you wanted
relationships? And through the process of building relationships you
will strengthen the church and be strengthened.

I am saying this so it does not begin to "look" like what we said we
do not want. Deeper Relationships are "painful" sometimes. To think we
do not have time for "pain" or avoid things is not relating as Jesus
did. But i am talking about relationship with purpose. Purposed to
edify and encourage. Purposed to be who God called us to be. So many
of us are "not" where we ant to be. Years ago the Lord showed me I am
right where I want to be by my choices. Don't you and I want to make
better choices? Would we have gone down the paths we did if we knew
some of the things we know now? I see through a glass darkly and so do
you. But as we encircle that glass together we "see" more better!

And if you invited me to a picnic and told me to bring the food and I
showed up empty handed we would not eat. It is the same with praying
with one another. We need to to understand that each one of us has the
ability to bless one another with our gifts. Let us not come thinking
we are without gifts and offerings. We want to be like Yogi Bear and
bring that piiiiiiiicnic basket! Right BooBoo?

I am a little bit selfish about Tuesday. Tina and I need prayer. We
need "help." We need our phones to ring. We need you!

Is anyone exactly like me? do you have the same needs as someone else?
Probably not. We can have a parents with children group, a singles
group, a recovery group, but that is not what many of us want right
now. We want Deeper Relationships. And that will include singles,
teens and adults. How do children or teens "grow" without learning to
be around adults? How do the "old" stay young without kids? How do the
singles learn about marriage without watching it in motion? How do
couples learn to be better without older couples? I think it is more
likely caught than taught.

Personally, I want people on the move, but I have learned how to be
with people who are not "moving."

I received a lot of words yesterday from a prophet. Part of the word
went like this. The Lord is preparing a church for an exodus. Many
will leave traditional places. It will not happen until there is a
place to exodus to. A place of provision and miracles. And all the
Hebrew people walked through that wilderness. They were on a mission.
Let us not be derailed by the same things that caused them problems.
We need to be that safe place. It is not that we necessarily will
agree with everything each one does, but we can still be a safe house.

Let us love one another as Jesus loved us.

Thanks!

Blessings,

Lee & Tina
