Come, Now Is The Time To Worship

 Come, now is the time to worship
 Come, now is the time to give your heart

 One day every tongue will confess you are God
 One day every kneee will bow
 Still, the greatest tereasure remains for those
 who gladly choose You now

 Come, now is the time to worship
 Come, now is the time to give your heart
 Come, just as you are to worship
 Come, just as tyou are before your God
 Come

As The Deer

Words and Music by Martin J Nystrom

As the deer panteth for the water, each day we start the day looking for that water or that food.

I will call upon the Lord

Song Service

Take My Life

This song really ties into the message today. Conformity, Transformity, we want to be transformed by Jesus.

 Holiness, holiness is what I long for
  Faithfulness is what I need

  ...
 Take my heart and form it
   Take my mind, transform it
       Take my will conform it
           To Yours, to Yours, Oh Lord

  Righteousness...

Change My Heart Oh God

  Change my heart, oh God
    Make it ever true....

Children's Story

This story is about John and David. John is 6, and David is 5. It is the beginning of Fall, and the trees were covered with colorful leaves with orange, yellow and brown. Canadian geese were flying southward in a V formation. The squirrels were gaterhing their pine nuts to store for the winter.

They were walking, and tired. They aaw a waterfall near a bridge where their dad's car was parked. Their dad was unable to start the car. Finally the dad gave up on starting the car.

They would have to walk 5 miles to get to the nearest paved road, to ask for help.

A short distance from the car, David asked if their dad could try to turn on the car one more time.

Isaiah 11:6.

Offeratory

Present our bodies as a living sacrifice....

Tithes and offerings. Offering is for the local church budget.
