“Jesus Is In This Car!”

Hi there!

I just watched this on Youtube and fell in love with it! I want to
be like that old lady when I grow up! Her words were so powerful "Jesus
is in this car…He goes with me everywhere I go…" The presence of
God truly is with us when we walk with Him, and anything is possible
when Jesus is by your side! Hope you like the video : )

I’m
writing this from New Orleans, leading worship here for an Easter
service. I just had my first ever experience of eating Lobster (which
was great!). I’m at the hotel editing the first 3 chapters of the book
I’m writing while listening to a Classical music CD… very chilled.

The
verse thats been on my mind ever since I saw the video above, is that
"with God nothing is impossible". Do I really believe that? Would I
live differently if I TRULY believed that with every fiber of my being?
A question for me and for our community here:

"What seems impossible for you right now? What do you need God to do to help?"

Hope
you have a wonderful Easter weekend… sing, celebrate the risen
Savior, and show His love to all around you. I watched The Passion
movie last night on Good Friday with my amazing ‘adopted family’ in
Nashville. The main thing that jumped out of the movie for me was the
unrelentingly forgiving love of Christ. Loving His betrayer, loving
those who sentenced Him to death, praying for those who nailed Him to
the cross… I find it hard to forgive people for small offences…what
a challenge to my heart and all of our hearts. Let the Cross move us
this Easter to love and forgive as He has loved and forgiven us. The
bar is set high but with His power in us, we can do it!

In His unrelenting love,
Vicky : )

    There are times that so much seems impossible in my life. It is now, more that ever, I am learning to trust God and hand over everything to Him and simply pray for His will. What do I need God to do? I am not even sure how to answer that question. I do know what I need to do. Trust. Pray. Do His will...not mine.

    The video is sooo coool! Thank's for sharing it! :-)

    There is one thing I am asking God for help, yes. But it's not for me, it's for a guy I know (in comparison to his problem, mine are not very important). He belongs to a very low percentage of people who get aneuyrismas easily. He knows that for some weeks (two of them broke in his brain - the medics helped him to survive and then he got the diagnosis). The medics give him only a few years. In this years he is not allowed to do anything (not working, car driving, ...). He is not a Christian, but I pray that God will help him to find him and to deal with this situtation. In one weak, he has the next big brain surgery (the medics found some aneurysmas in his brain whose state is very critical) and I hope that God will help him to go through this situation.
    By the way, the guy I am talking about is 28. When I think about him, I am so greatful that I know God who gives me strenght, and that I am blessed with a wonderful live.

    What a woman. That woman is such an example of how we can minister to anyone anytime. I believe God put that man in her car.
    I need help leading my bible study. I am very new to leading. It is definitly not in my comfort zone. I know it is where God wants me to be; He pushed me long before I listened. He has blessed me so much in my preparation, and shown me so much while studying and watching the videos on my own. But somehow when I get with the group I can not pass it along, and I don't have that same excitement.
    This last week we read Luke 9:28-36 where Jesus takes Peter, James, and John up the mountain and apears in His glory with Moses, and Elijah. First of all I love that it says that P,J, and J were very sleepy, but came fully awake; I think that sight could wake up anyone! Anyway, Peter immediately starts babbling about wanting to build huts for Jesus, Moses, and Elijah, because it is good to be there with them. He wanted to just stay there. The point is we can not just stay in a private place with God. Yes, it is good for us, but what good is it for anyone else?
    It was very convicting for me. I need God's help to take the excitement and knowlege I get in my private time, and pass it along to a group. I really have no idea how to do that. God help me and my bible study gals!

    Happy Easter Vicky!

    We LOVED having you at First Pres (in Burlingame, CA) last November!!
  • Thanks for the thought-provoking question, Vicky! Glad you liked the lobster! :o) Thanks also for passing that video on… I really enjoyed it!

    I went to my grandma’s funeral this weekend and heard my father and his siblings talk about the incredible life she lived and the legacy of faithfulness and service to others she passed on to us. There was a lot of laughter as well as some tears, and it was so good to be together with family from all over the country.

    I want to leave a legacy like that, and this is something I can’t do without God. I don’t yet see exactly what form my legacy will take, but I pray that I will accomplish the purposes I was made for.

    I’ll continue to pray that God anoints your writing and all of your interactions with others as you work on the book and this next album. Have an incredible Easter!
