Sunday Morning

By Bro. Ed Underwood
Several visitors were in attendance, very inspiring to see God’s House filling up. The first quarter of 2008 has been good and let's join together in expecting great things in the remaining three quarters of this year for Cornerstone Worship Center. I know the Board is working diligently and I, along with others are looking forward with great anticipation to the additional alter to kneel at and the installation of the new baptistery tank. God is doing great things at CWC!

Sis. Angie led the choir and congregation in praise singing “Let it Rain”, a peace and time of consecration filled the air as people began offering up praise with lifted hands towards heaven all over the sanctuary. The Holy Spirit moved through the sanctuary like a warm autumn breeze gently blowing through colorful leaves. It is in the quiet times we can listen most to God.

Sis Carrie Poole blessed us with an inspirational song, “When we call on Jesus, All things are possible”! How true it is, how true it is – Glory Halleluiah!!

Pastor Reynolds brought forth the anointed Word, preaching on getting over past mistakes so we can move on in the calling of God. Romans 3:23, “For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God.” Peter was a follower of Jesus, but then later denied that he knew Jesus. Peter allowed himself to be ruled by fear, quick to speak and slow to listen. Peter did what he no doubt thought he would never do. Mark 14:72, “And the second time the cock crew. And Peter called to mind the word that Jesus said unto him, Before the cock crow twice, thou shalt deny me thrice. And when he thought thereon, he wept.” As Pastor says frequently, sin will always take you further and deeper than you think. What if Peter allowed the shame and guilt of his mistake to have kept him from restoration in Christ??? Peter would not have gone on to preach at Pentecost and become the vessel God intended and used mightily. Peter failed, but he didn’t quit! Peter moved on with God and didn’t wallow in his past sins and mistakes.

God has called you with a purpose and God is the God of second chances! No one else can do what you can do. My Dad has a saying, “when you fall off the horse, dust yourself off and get back on and ride again”. Don’t allow yesterdays mistakes and failures keep you from moving into victory through Christ Jesus!

Don't live in the past, look to a wonderful future in Christ Jesus!



Hebrews 10:25, Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is; but exhorting one another: and so much the more, as ye see the day approaching.

It is hard to imagine these church doors being busted down with people seeking Christ after the Rapture. Don't wait, the church doors are open for you and restoration in Christ awaits while there is still time. The signs of God's return are all around us, don't wait.
