IMPORTANCE OF ACMs

  2. Practice of accountability at many levels:
    1. Personal.
    2. Session.
    3. Church Congregation (ACM).

3. Practice Of Sharing A Vision

  1. Our vision for the Lord's work has expanded significantly.
  2. We must seek to share Bethany's growing vision as a congregation.

BIBLE MEMORY WORK

TODAY

All Wait For You

"These all wait for You,
That You may give them their food in due season."

Psalm 104:27

1. Practice Of Waiting

  1. This is a universal concept.
  2. Consciously or unconsciously all living creatures wait on the Lord.

2. The Practice Of Waiting On The Lord In The Animal Kingdom

  1. God provides for all the needs of living creatures in the animal kingdom.
  2. Knowledge of this fact should challenge us to learn how to practise waiting on the Lord.

NEXT SUNDAY

"But those who wait on the Lord
Shall renew their strength;
They shall mount up with wings as eagles,
They shall run and not be weary,
They shall walk and not faint."

POETRY CORNER

SOME MINUTES IN THE MORNING

Some minutes in the morning,
Ere the cares of life begin,
Ere the heart's wide door is open
For the world to enter in.
Oh, then alone with Jesus,
In the silence of the morn,
In heavenly sweet communion
Let your every day be born,
In the quietude that blesses,
With a prelude of repose,
Let your soul be soothed and softened
As the dew revives the rose.

Some minutes in the morning
Take your Bible in your hand,
And catch a glimpse of glory
From the peaceful promised land.
It will linger still before you
When you seek the busy mart,
And like flowers of hope will blossom
Into beauty in your heart.
The precious words like jewels
Will glisten all the day
With a rare refulgent glory
That will brighten all the way!
