Momentum

Life Groups on Wednesday and Thursday, Worship Culpeper on Friday and Women's Ice Cream Social on Saturday - this is the line-up for this week @ City on a Hill Church. We're going to create some momentum for this mid-summer doledrum season in which we find ourselves.

Physics tells us that momentum = mass x velocity. Well, from that definition one may conclude that a small church like COAHC's momentum may never be significant. Wrong! Momentum can lead to more momentum and its potential is infinite. It feeds on itself - and that's a good thing.

In our Church Business Meeting yesterday afternoon, I shared that our vision for this next year is to take the momentum we've created in our first year of existence and use it to take us to new heights in our second year. It's kind of like the momentum of a roller coaster going down hill that carries it up the next hill.

Personally, we all need momentum in our lives. When we don't have it, it's easy for us to become stagnant. We have to work harder at motivating ourselves to create motion. What momentum do you have in your walk with Christ right now? What caused that momentum in the first place?

If you don't have momentum, I suggest that you create some. You can create momentum by building healthy habits - daily devotional time with the Lord, prayer time with your spouse, taking advantage of teachable moments with your kids. When you have a little wind in your sails, it's a lot easier to go through life!
