It could not have been a better service! Our Alive student band led worship. This group of high school students led with such anointing, I was one big glory bump!! I told them only their own families could've been more proud of them. They lead with energy and the joy of the Lord all over them! Their walk with Jesus shines through as they sing and lead.
And then our student pastor/son-n-law Michael Hux preached. And did he preach!! What a challenging message that was not just for graduates but also for those of us who have journeyed with Jesus a long time and still need the reminder to not only spend time in God's Word daily but also crave it and enjoy it!!
Some of my favorite points...
...God's Word is bread for daily use not cake for special occasions.
...the more we open His Word the more we crave His Word.
...sin destroys our appetite for God's Word.
...we grow up by opening up the Word.
...if you want to know how good God is, He doesn't treat us as our sins deserve.
...He supplied our greatest need, salvation, but also our every need.
...when we taste it, we crave it.
Thank you Michael Hux for not only pouring into students but all of our lives as well. It's evident how much you love Jesus and the desire you have for others to love Him as you preach with tears in your eyes and a heart full of love. The growth of our student ministry is evidence of those things being a reality in your life and your continual pouring out day after day after day!
We enjoyed the famous Texas Roadhouse dinner rolls as part of the sermon illustration. Next time you're there be sure and thank them on behalf of Fairview!!
