Friday Night we had another successful Dinner and Movie! We watched My Big Fat Greek Wedding, and had a delicious Greek Inspired Meal and fabulous Fellowship. See the pictures below!
(we were having so much fun I didn't get many pictures!)
Some things to think about that we shared during the devotion after the movie:
Matthew 10:29-31 (MSG) What's the price of a pet canary? Some loose change, right? And God cares what happens to it even more than you do. He pays even greater attention to you, down to the last detail—even numbering the hairs on your head! So don't be intimidated by all this bully talk. You're worth more than a million canaries.
I Love this God cares for us even down to the tiniest detail of knowing how many hairs are on our heads!
and one of my favorites:
Ephesians 2:10 (NLT) For we are God’s masterpiece. He has created us anew in Christ Jesus, so we can do the good things he planned for us long ago.
The definition of the word master piece is the greatest work, of an artist. Thats how God sees us as His masterpiece. One of a kind created in his image! What could be better than that?
