Bless the Lord oh my soul and praise His Holy name. I once read a book called, 'Falling Forward.' It was about the fact that we all make mistakes and we all fail or fall as we are learning to walk the good walk of faith. We need to know that in falling forward we fell in the direction of our goal and as we get up we'll be closer to our goal than when we fell. Proverbs 24: 16 "For a righteous man may fall seven times and rise again." Success or failure is not found in how many times you fell but in how many times you got back up. Falling can be hurtful and getting back up may require some effort from you and those around you. This is why we are called a family and helping each other is what we do. As I have walked with God, I've been helped by others and times when I've helped others to be encouraged to continue to fight the good fight off faith. Let us today be God's hands extended as we help and bless those that are around us.
This Saturday, that's tomorrow night we're having our Family Christmas Banquet. It starts at 6 pm at the church and you should come early to get a good seat as we celebrate that Jesus is the Reason for the Season. Our guest speaker is Glen Tetford and he will also be with us for our 10:30 Sunday morning service. Glen is really a down to earth guy with an up to Heaven message. You will be blessed by his insight into the word of God. There will be no Sunday evening service this week.
Continue to pray for those in need, looking forward to seeing you, lots of love, Pastor Kevin and Alice
