Beachside Celebration Sunday…
So today was the big day for Beachside… I didn’t get to go last year, so it was my first Celebration Sunday experience. I was not disappointed, to say the least.
During worship team prayer, Drew had mentioned to us that he had all these expectations for the morning, but decided it would be best for him and for all of us to just chuck them out the window and see what happenend. The point being that when we approach events with really high personal expectations we are often let down because God decides to move in a different “unexpected” way. So as a team we went out there with one expectation… to see God move. And He did.
I loved it all from start to finish. We heard story after story of God delivering people from drugs, alcohol, and pain. Robbie’s message on the prodigal son/father was good stuff and really ministered to me after hearing those stories. I literally had tears in my eyes before it was over… God’s mercy stops me in my tracks man.
There is definitly something about getting a big group of hungry people in one room to just cut loose and worship. God has been so faithful to each of us, in ways we don’t even notice sometimes. He is an awesome God. Today truly filled my heart with gratitude for all He has done…
