Waiting for that day... a soul on fire. Lord, restore the joy I've lost. Wandering in darkness, see me through, until all I see is You. đŸ”¥ Like a song waiting to be sung, a passion waiting to ignite.

Let Christ be my wisdom and my guiding word, forever with me, my Father. May He dwell within me, and I within Him, as one. 'Be thou my vision, O Lord of my heart...' (modified lyrics)

You can know all about Jesus' commands, but are you living them? True discipleship isn't just head knowledge, it's heart and action. But why is obeying so tough? Let's dive into why, and find our way back to Him. As the song says, 'I surrender all...' and that's the challenge and the beauty of the Gospel.

Welcome back to our table! Following Pentecost Sunday, Pastor Leslie Tomlinson sits down with Kevin Wester and Cary Headrick at First Methodist Church of Burnet to dive deeper into who the Holy Spirit is and how He actively works in our lives.As we kick off our new sermon series on the movement of the Holy Spirit and approach Trinity Sunday, we tackle the beautiful mystery of God in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.

Together, we discuss how the Holy Spirit acts as our guide, a divine counselor, and an intimate source of fellowship that reshapes our hearts in God's image. We also explore the rich imagery of Genesis 1, uncovering the profound meaning behind the Spirit "brooding" or "hovering" over the deep to bring forth life.If you are looking for a church home, we would love to welcome you!

Join us for worship this Sunday morning at 8:30 AM or 11:00 AM. If you live in or near Burnet and need a ride, reach out—our church bus is ready to pick you up.

Ever read a Bible passage and it hits different each time? That's the Holy Spirit teaching us as we go! It's like a new message appears, perfectly timed for what's happening in your life. Sister in Christ used to say, 'I know that wasn't in there before!' because the Spirit brings it alive. It’s a divine, personal unfolding, just as Jesus guides us.

We're not just forgiven; we're freed from sin's grip to break old patterns. True holiness comes not from our own efforts, but from God's power indwelling us. He gives us His superpower to live a new life. "He that is in you is greater than he that is in the world." (1 John 4:4)

Thinking of discipleship as just acquiring knowledge? Let's dive deeper into baptism, obeying Christ's commands, and the real journey of following Jesus. As the song goes, 'He came to set the captives free!' Are you ready to truly live it?

Singing 'cause He's faithful, singing 'cause He's true! There's nobody greater than our Lord. He reigns, He rose, and defeated the grave. Let your soul praise Him! Amen.

Ever wonder what 'brooding' truly means? It's not just sitting around! Rooted in the image of a hen nurturing her chicks, it signifies bringing life, protection, and growth. It's about fostering new beginnings until they're ready to hatch and soar. Like Jesus tending to us, guiding us from shell to flight.

Ever wonder how to connect with the Holy Spirit? Treat Him like a person you can chat with! Jesus sent Him to guide us, so ask for help, guidance, and insights. He's not just a 'wisp,' He's your personal connection to God's wisdom. Let's deepen our communication and walk in His light, embodying the Gospel's message of connection and love.
