Redefining Moments

This past week at Shore Fellowship has been redifining. I remember as a kid going to an amusement park called, Cedarpoint. What I love about the park is their Coasters. They have some of the best coasters in the world. Never did I imagine how much those things reflect the way life can be. One minute your up in the clouds and the next you’ve been brought back to reality through the circumstances of life.

This past week we lost 2 wonderful people in our midst. One of them was George Ammon and just yesterday we Celebrated the life of Gabby Guenther. She was an energetic, artistic, fun loving 15 year old that had her whole life in front of her. But in God’s divine wisdom He allowed Gabby to come home to Him this past week. Although we are sad we have already seen the impact that has come from this tragic loss. As of today we have seen around 25 people come to Christ and scores of relationships restored.

So often in times like this people get mad. But as Pastor Steve said at the funeral yesterday, “Don’t get mad at God get mad at the one who brought death into this world. Satan. God is the Author of Life”. Because Gabby knew Christ, she will live forever. Remember to keep the family in prayer. And never forget that God is God in the the good times and the bad. As a matter of fact it is in the toughest times we see Him more clearly.
