Accidental Millionaires!

New Zealand police are searching for a couple believed to have fled the country with millions of dollars they received in a banking error.

Police will not reveal who the accidental millionaires are, but it is believed they ran a service station in the North Island city of Rotorua.

The couple had applied for a $10,000 loan to stop their business going under, but Westpac mistakenly transferred $8 million ($NZ10 million) into their account.

Now these cunning Kiwis have done a runner, but police are in hot pursuit.

Faith

"Faith is like film, it's developed in the dark!" - Ps David Brydges

A Generational Church

A Generational Church is one where Abraham resources Isaac, Isaac releases Jacob and Jacob reveers Abraham.

Psalm 145 tells us 'One generation will commend your works to another, they will tell of your mighty acts!'

I want to be a part of a church that releases the next generation to serve God in greater ways than we could ever imagine!

Honestly, where did he find the time?

Milwaukee Bucks forward Charlie Villanueva was scolded by coach Scott Skiles after he (Villanueva) Twittered during halftime of his team's 86-77 win over the Boston Celtics on Sunday. Apparently Villanueva, who goes by @CV31 on Twitter, couldn't wait until after the game to keep his thousands of followers updated so he secretly wrote, "We're playing the Celtics, tie ball game at da half. Coach wants more toughness. I gotta step up."

Vision

The elephant is the only creature who does not know how big his body is. His eyes are too small and he has two huge ears sticking out right beside them. So he walks around like a little animal, led by a small boy with a stick.

Lets never forget that as part of the Church, big C, we are apart of a family and body that is so huge in God's eyes nothing will stop it's increase on the earth!

Power to Change

I loved this verse in 1 Samuel 10:6
'The Spirit of the Lord will come upon you in power...and you will be changed into a different person.'

I love church because it's a place where people can encounter God and his presence to transform us; his love to heal us, his grace to free us and power to change us!

Lets live today ready to change and grow!
