A Word from the Pastor
(Wholeheartedly His) 2 Chronicles 25:2 “And he (Amaziah) did what was right in the sight of the Lord, but not with a loyal heart.”
Religion may ask, “are you in or are you out?” But God asks, How far in are you? His interest is in active RELATIONSHIP. Before the wedding, a man is “out,” but afterward, he is “in.” And once he’s married , question isn’t, “is he really married, or just a little married?” Everything God does is to have His people be “really in;” wholeheartedly with Him.
It’s possible to do what is right in His eyes, but not in a way that demonstrates a real relationship. Following the rules is never enough for The Father. Character and heart matter more. The good news is that in Christ, each of us are given a new whole heart to be His. Thank God for a new heart and go ALL IN with Him today. (Adapted - 3 Min. Devotions, Barbour Publishing)
Please continue to pray for all families going through a season of bereavement.
Please keep the family of Bro. Trustee Robert and Sis. Val Gibson in prayer in the passing of Bro. Gibson sister, Sharon Moore.
Continue to pray for the Moore Family in the passing of Bro. Harry Moore, former Mayor of Oldsman Twp, as well as the family of Nolan Wells in Mississippi and the family of Shadir Skinner, just over in Wilmington.
We invite anyone dealing with the passing of a loved one to join us every third Thursday of each month for our Grief2Life Ministry on our direct dial conference call number (667) 776-9070.
