Sermon notes I took at church a longgggg time ago - 2003!!!.........BLESSINGS IN OUR BLOOPERS!!!!!! by Patricia Smith



BLESSINGS IN OUR BLOOPERS!
Bloopers are like edits in a film. 
Bloopers are inevitable.
Bloopers are in the making of a ‘Child of God’.
Men/Women of faith all have bloopers!
All of us (inclusive) have fallen short from the glory of God.
We’ve  had leaps, mistakes, and bloopers.
Only because of God’s grace and mercy are these leaps, mistakes, and bloopers edited out.

We are here because of His Goodness . . . .and because of His Grace
God allows mistakes, misfortune etc. . . . . in order to utilize us to do ministry.
There are blessings in our bloopers . . . ..  .
There are blessings in our bloopers when we profit from them
Thank God for bloopers

I am not blooper sensored….For example when a passenger tries to go through the airport security . . . .and the buzzer goes off . . .it is metal sensored. . . .. .
The doors at the church should be devil sensored. . . . . .and go off to detect the sinners entering the church house . . . .should be devil sensored. . . Jezebel sensored. . . .etc. . .

There are some folks . .. you don’t want to hang out with!
With your bloopers . .  .God is going to qualify you to do ministry. . . .
You are going to be qualified and given the authority to do ministry

Through storms . . . . .we cry
Bloopers qualify you to be a blessing to others . . ..
Sometimes we cover up our mistakes and act like we’ve always been in church.
We need to be real about it!

Young people see our scars from the bloopers; which will allow them to NOT make the same mistakes/bloopers
Who we are and what we see now . . . .we wouldn’t have gotten at this point without our bloopers

Bloopers are fixable . . . .
Everyone had bloopers . .  . .i.e. Noah drank . . . .Moses murdered, Paul persecuted. . . . .  .still God used these individuals to spread His Word . . .regardless of the bloopers that they had completed in their lives . . . .

Bloopers/flaws don’t prohibit Kingdom Building . . . . .
We do need to limit our bloopers, though . . . .
Our bloopers can be potential barriers to non-believers. . . . .

Grace abounds . . . .
We as Christians should walk the walk and talk the talk . . . . our bloopers should be minimal . . . . . .
God is looking for some ‘real folk’ . . . .

Bloopers are fixable . . .They can be fixed . . . . ..
God CAN fix our bloopers . . . .
God WILL fix our bloopers!

God gave me another chance. . . .We serve a mighty good God . . .
God is merciful . . . .God is graceful. . . .Grace

GRACE 
Grace woke me up this morning!
Grace started me on my way . . .
AMAZING GRACE . . . .
GOD’S AMAZING GRACE ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !

AREN’T WE GLAD THAT BECAUSE OF GOD’S GRACE AND MERCY AND BECAUSE OF HIS SON JESUS
. . . .OUR BLOOPERS ARE EDITED OUT OF THE FILM ABOUT OUR LIVES . . . .  .
 hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm


For while the Law was given through Moses, grace (unearned, undeserved favor and spiritual blessing) and truth came through Jesus Christ. John 1: 17
