Connecting with God is vital. Connecting with God is exciting...especially when a group of seniors are gathered together for meaningful worship and individual fellowship.
This was certainly evident today as the Eastern Victoria Division hosted its annual Seniors Rally at Doncaster, organized by Major Jennifer Cloke (Divisional Community Care Secretary) and well supported by territorial leaders, Commissioners Carolyn & Jim Knaggs, together with our own divisional staff. The Melbourne Veterans' Band were the invited guest musicians and they certainly added a spirit of praise to the gathering that focussed from start to finish on "Connecting With God".
I was privileged to be in attendance and personally participated by reciting selected verses from Romans chapter 8. These are inspiring words that are the basis for the personal confidence we have in our Christ-inspired daily faith - words that were supported with spontaneous applause.
Well, there's got to be a first time for everything. Why not at a seniors rally from wise and well-travelled fellow believers?
Romans 8:37 (NLT) ~ "...overwhelming victory is ours through Christ, who loved us."
