Our God Is Alive and Well

44 “You delivered me from strife with my people;     you kept me as the head of the nations;     people whom I had not known served me. 45 Foreigners came cringing to me;     as soon as they heard of me, they obeyed me. 46 Foreigners lost heart     and came trembling out of their fortresses. 47 “The Lord lives, and blessed be my rock,     and exalted be my God, the rock of my salvation, 48 the…

Church notes - 12th May 2012

12th Psalm 18:16 - 36

'Can't see the forest for the trees.'

2 Samuel 22 We need a humble heart tp realise that we need to come to come to God for redemption.

A man after His own heart. When called out for sin, David immediately repented.

vs 19 - 27

What is it we want? What heart are we bringing to God?

Jesus' miracles were about restoring humanity, as part of His redemptive plan. He was fulfilling Scripture. So should we.

Love God. Love people.

Jesus wasn't interested in the How, but the why.

Shame. Fear of not trying.

Ephesians 2:4 - 7

Salvation is a shift. Dying to self and coming to life through Jesus' death and resurrection.

Stop overanalysing yourself and look to Christ.

vs 21 Not boasting. But David was looking to God.

Hebrews 12:1, 2

Fixing our eyes on Jesus.

2 Samuel 7:22 (NKJV) - Therefore You are great, O Lord GOD. For there is none like You, nor is there any God besides You, according to all that we have heard with our ears.

I can only describe the calling I felt to join the 2:22 A Ghost Story company as a spiritual one. The pull toward this story & this cast was perhaps was the most intense I’ve felt in my career & the reward of being up on the boards every night was greater than I could have anticipated.

I’m gutted that it’s come to an end. Last month several members of our company were hit with a virus & in the following weeks everyone recovered except for me. After weeks of being intermittently pulled off stage & visiting multiple doctors, specialists, & an all nighter in the ER, I’ve been advised by my medical team in London & America to stop performing in order to get this under control & to do so in the country where I reside under the care of my own doctors. I’m crushed to not be able to finish my run, to have to leave my incredible cast mates & company & to miss the nights on stage with our audiences. It’s been a pleasure to perform for you all on your most special occasions. I’ve loved reading your messages about birthdays & anniversaries spent with us & I wish I could do more. I’m not one who ever leaves early. It’s devastating to say goodbye to an experience that’s been so incredibly fulfilling, both artistically & personally. Being a part of this company put me back in my body and in my soul. I was reminded, on a cellular level, of why I do this job & how much I love acting. I crossed an ocean to come home to myself.

I owe so much gratitude to my incredible cast mates. @jaimewinstone@rickychamp2@cliffordsamuel you are alchemists, healers, confidants, & just the most fun & talented people I know. It’s been a privilege. I feel the same about Andie, Philip, Tan, Lottie, James, and every other member of our incredible company who became fast family. You all have been so supportive through this. I will never be able to express enough gratitude for your care. From ensuring I made it through shows once things got dicey with everything from medicine to flat sodas hidden backstage — even packing my feverish body in ice packs from head to toe on more than one night — you made it less terrifying to be struggling thousands of miles from my home & my family.

To all of the fans who came along, thank you. You made my Lauren journey feel like a party. A wild, joyous, invigorating rush, night after night. I loved making you scream, and making you laugh, and hearing your stories at the stage door. It means the world to me that so many of you traveled to see the show. If you’re booked for future nights, please go support my incredible costars. They will blow you away! I know Frankie Bridge will be incredible through the rest of this run.

I’m sad. Happy. Immensely grateful. There is no greater creative experience than the stage. I miss it madly. I love it deeply. I cannot wait for the next one ♥️

"THERE'S DANGER IN TWISTING SCRIPTURE!"

Deuteronomy 4:2, “Now listen, Israel, listen carefully to the rules and regulations that I am teaching you to follow so that you may live and enter and take possession of the land that God, the God-of-Your-Fathers, is giving to you. DON’T ADD A WORD TO WHAT I COMMAND YOU, AND DON’T REMOVE A WORD FROM IT. Keep the commands of God, your God, that I am commanding you.” (MSG) Ecclesiastes 3:14-15,…

Boast in the Lord

32 “For who is God, but the Lord?     And who is a rock, except our God? 33 This God is my strong refuge     and has made my way blameless. 34 He made my feet like the feet of a deer     and set me secure on the heights. 35 He trains my hands for war,     so that my arms can bend a bow of bronze. 36 You have given me the shield of your salvation,     and your gentleness made me great. 37 You gave…

"Quão grande és tu, ó Soberano Senhor! Não há ninguém como tu nem há outro Deus além de ti, conforme tudo o que sabemos." - 2 Samuel 7:22

[wiirocku]

2 Samuel 7:21-22 (NASB1995) - For the sake of Your word, and according to Your own heart, You have done all this greatness to let Your servant know. For this reason You are great, O Lord GOD; for there is none like You, and there is no God besides You, according to all that we have heard with our ears.
