S.W.A.P. is now blogging!

Welcome!

I am excited that the S.W.A.P. Minitry at Edinbrook Church now has a blog. This is way cool and is going to be something that we are going to have a lot of fun with.

Our God is alive and well. He is really big and actually, is beyond what our little brains can understand. But, just because we can't totally figure Him out doesn't mean that our God who always has been around, is all over the place now, and always will be with us doesn't love and care for you.

The first part of James 4:8 says this - "Come close to God, and He will come close to you...". To often we wait for God to make the first move. We sit around and know that He is out there...somewhere...but we really aren't that interested in finding out where. You see, the Bible is full of verses that tell is to search for God, to seek Him out, to come close to God. This clearly makes the point that we are the ones who are to make the move to pursue God...to go after Him. James 4:8 is a simple if/then statement. IF you come close to God, THEN He will come close to you!

So...it's your move!
