Writer's Block

As I sat down this week to write my blog I really didn't know what to write.  I guess you could say I didn't have anything to say. (I know, that is not like me!)  So as I sat in a daze looking into my computer screen the little noise came across my computer speakers telling me..."You've got mail."  Not having any incredible inspirational moments of writing I immediately took time to see who the email was from and what it said.  After reading it I was convinced that I had my blog.  I asked the one who penned the note to me if I could use her words for my blog and she graciously said....ABSOLUTELY...I would be honored.  So here it is folks...the whole reason we planted COC Metro and the whole reason we exist.  By the way, this great lady prayed and received Christ as her Savior on Easter Sunday at COC Metro!!!!!  Thank you Lord for letting us be involved in such a great endeavor!!!
 
Brad,
 
I really enjoyed today at COC.  It really uplifted me and just filled my heart with the Holy Spirit. For many many years I have been away from church. It's a long story and had a lot to do with my Mormon upbringing. I was force-fed that lifestyle for many years and it just didn't feel right for me. My husband is a good Christian man so I can imagine it was hard to sit by and wait for me to get on the bandwagon but he did. Your church has changed my life and helped me to come back to God. I have always known and loved Him but from afar. I guess He knew I was ready and so He sent me to COC Metro. My husband is thrilled and so proud of me for embarking on my walk with Christ.
 
I just wanted to tell you a little background and let you know how awesome it is for me to want to be a part of this church....and such a young church. I feel like we can grow together.
 
Thanks again!
 
Now that is why we're here.  Keep on keeping on for the Lord folks.  The victories are worth the journey.
 
Have a great week!
