If you knew that God was about to reach into your heart and fill it with overflowing love, what would you do differently? What would you wear? Who would you want to be with you? Would you spend the day reading the Bible and seeking God on your knees? Would you cancel your appointments in anticipation? Would you be excited?
Give thought to the matter on the way to Connections. Oh, it's not the event that will draw God among us, it's your heart. When you and I prepare to meet with Him, His Word tells us that He's ready...and an encounter with Him will thrill your soul. Hallelujah!
Come and bring your ready heart.
1 John 2:28 (MSG)
28 And now, children, stay with Christ. Live deeply in Christ. Then we'll be ready for him when he appears, ready to receive him with open arms, with no cause for red-faced guilt or lame excuses when he arrives.

Your colleague Salvationists in the USA East are covering Connections in prayer, and believing that a great outpouring of God's grace and power will be unveiled in your midst, with ripple effects all the way to New York. May AUS never be the same again.
Yes! Connections - with the heart of God, with each other and within ourselves.
I'll also be watching - live on the web. Thanks for that.

What a mighty force we could be as an organisation if all branches of the salvation army worked together toward the one goal. Employment Plus, Social Programs, Salvo Stores, Corps and anything else I have left out could do amazing things. May we all learn to leave our pride behind and surrender instead to the power of God.
WOW...not long now! My heart is opening more and more to Gods message over these last few months.....I crave his word and an understanding of his will for my life....and for my role in this big wide Army.....and this time at Connections is a time of expectation for me and challenge...plus its going to be a great time of meeting up with old friends and making new friends...
