What's In Your Wallet? - LIFEChurchDFW.com



 
Today's service was such a great service, as always! The topic for today was
 
"What's In Your Wallet"
(It's not about money)
Acts 3:1-10 (New International Version)
This was the first recorded miracle of the early church...

 
Peter Heals the Crippled Beggar
 
1One day Peter and John were going up to the temple at the time of prayer—at three in the afternoon. 2Now a man crippled from birth was being carried to the temple gate called Beautiful, where he was put every day to beg from those going into the temple courts. 3When he saw Peter and John about to enter, he asked them for money. 4Peter looked straight at him, as did John. Then Peter said, "Look at us!" 5So the man gave them his attention, expecting to get something from them.

 
6Then Peter said, "Silver or gold I do not have, but what I have I give you. In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, walk." 7Taking him by the right hand, he helped him up, and instantly the man's feet and ankles became strong. 8He jumped to his feet and began to walk. Then he went with them into the temple courts, walking and jumping, and praising God. 9When all the people saw him walking and praising God, 10they recognized him as the same man who used to sit begging at the temple gate called Beautiful, and they were filled with wonder and amazement at what had happened to him.

Special Guest:
 
We also had special guests Brandon and Melissa Newman who are serving their missionary in Scottland.
Brandon made a great speak and enphasized that "Yesterday ended last night"
Don't let yesterdays struggles, arguements and pains stick with you today. It's a new day and new beginning.
