New series at Inglewood Church, A Passionate Life!

“The proposition I want to talk about and discuss over the next few weeks is that being aware of the Holy Spirit, of Gods presence in our lives will enable us to live a passionate life. because His presence in our lives changes our attitude.
You see the problem with attitude is that it is intangible. It hides behind our weaknesses and and strengths.
So when someones problem really is their attitude they can hide behind excuses. Negativity, whinging, sloppy, mediocre, victim mentality, stingy, sour, arrogant, unteachable, self satisfied people are very quick to point towards circumstances or other people as the problem behind their lack of success or passion. But that is not the problem, the problem is their interpretation of events!”

Great Video, with thanks to Dockerland.

Really really enjoyed looking through the book of James this past month.
Comes to the end this week as we look at James 5.
“James wants them to understand that their own life is not theirs to take. God holds their life in His hands…remember last week we spoke about our life being a mist? Ultimately life and death decisions are not ours…we are human, we are finite, and one day our time will come. But that is not ours to determine. And you know what, as Christians the responsibility and authority for our lives, we have given that to God, we submit to His will for our life!
This does take patience, something James implores us to have. remember James was Jesus brother. he had to learn patience eh? Grew up with Jesus, wondered what was happening with this strange unusual older brother he had, finally believed, and now he had to wait for Jesus to return. He knows about patience. Lord give me patience and give it to me now!
He uses the real friendly greeting, brothers, sisters.
James does not ignore their problem, or misunderstand their situation. in a few years time Paul the apostle has to plead with other churches to send financial assistance to the Jerusalem church because its members were starving, literally. where is God there?
we all have issues, we all have problems, but not having enough food to eat is probably up there…and why is not God helping with that, patience with God develops trust and faith.
focus on the big picture, take a long view…look forward to the Lords coming. “

Bookies have Freo as favourites.
I am not so sure.
Two months ago we (Dockers) would have smashed em.
But now, we have 9 of our best out of the 22.

West Coast Coach John ‘denial’ Woosha has stated that this game means far more than a normal one. In fact some might suggest this is the Eagles “Grand Final” this year.

With a lot of Freo players out, a lot of players tired….

If ever West Coast are in with a chance, it is this derby.

One of their best….
