I've heard the song "Better Days" by the Goo Goo Dolls many times. It always struck me as a great love song, but never really grabbed me.
One morning this week, I was driving to work when the song came on the radio. I had been contemplating all that has been going on at Western Oaks when the words of this song pierced me at a deeper level than ever before. The lyrics spoke to my hope for the future of Western Oaks. A future that I pray will be a reality if we are willing to make a serious commitment to the Lord that we will not allow what happened to Pastor Jeff to happen to another pastor. I was soon crying, laughing and praising God all at the same time in my car.
So listen to these words. Watch this video. Post a comment about how this speaks to you. What do you think it will take for Western Oaks to find better days?
And come back for Saturday's post. I want to share my thoughts about what I hope will happen when we gather together to worship our Lord on Sunday morning. Feel free to share your thoughts and prayers as well on that post. This is a forum for you to share how the Lord is leading your heart and mind about Western Oaks.
Don't forget to go to the previous post to share your comments on how the Lord has blessed you through the ministry of Pastor Jeff and Melodee.
