Greeting Second Baptist Family,
Weekly Pastor’s Notes
Thought for the week:
Sometimes you’re made to pass through a valley of suffering, and you may not even be certain that you’ll survive. It looks like you’ll crash. Yet, difficult as your circumstances may be, soon enough you’ll be laughing again and will forget your troubles.
They’ll be as waters that have evaporated. David said of God, “For His anger is but for a moment, His favor is for life; Weeping may endure for a night, but joy comes in the morning” (Psalm 30:5 NKJV). Be encouraged and know, “For the Lord has comforted His people, And will have mercy on His afflicted” (Isaiah 49;13 NKJV).
(3 Minute Devotions – Barbour Books)
