Weak or strong?

Will our week end weak or strong? Will we honor the Lord-Friday, Saturday, and Sunday? We can. We could. We should. Which choice will we make?
Pick at least one good thing to do to be a blessing and do it. God bless and use us- PASTOR JOE

A Time

There is a time to laugh, and a time to cry. In a world full of evil and sin, we need a time to laugh and a time to cry.
The truth is we can laugh and cry at the wrong time. I realize that many seldom laugh, and that is sad, but some laugh too much, and some never cry.
The key word is balance, and doing it at the right time.
I hope today it is laughing time, and we can do it a lot today, but if it is crying time- do it.

Grace

Tonight some will gather as we study about God blessing someone who doesn't deserve IT, but really who else can God bless? This promises to be an interesting Bible study.
I challenge us today to show an act of kindness to someone today- see what their reaction is-PASTOR JOE

A DAY TO REMEMBER

Today we pause to remember those who gave the ultimate price so that we can enjoy the freedoms we often take for granted. We must never forget freedom isn't free.
We also pause to pray for the families of our heroes-God bless them one and all.
May we honor them today and every day- thanks.

Joy

Do we know what joy is? Are we full of joy? What are so many so sad loooking? What is the secret of joy?
Joy has a code that can be used and does it make a difference. Look carefully.
J- Jesus first
O- others-next
Y- yourself last
Try it, you may find the secret to real joy...PASTOR JOE

Playing

Lord, so many desire to play- they beg You to leave them alone, so they can play on. Life is all about playing-he who plays most and does their thing wins-OR DO THEY?

Last Chance

Tonight the series of revival services ends. It doesn't have to end tonight, for it can live on in our hearts. Scott has done some inspired preaching-what a blessing, the choir-wow! The specials have been special. The Lord has spoken- do we listen and apply-it's up to us.
Add to your pray list Norma Owen, she fell yesterday at Charleston while on vacation and broke her hip, and will have hip operation today. She is such a sweet lady- pray for her and Charles and the family, and the Doctors,etc...
Have a good Godly day-PASTOR JOE

THE LORD KNOWS THE FUTURE

Sunday morning I shall share a message that clearly shows us that Jesus knows the future, and plays a big role in it. The future may be here before we know it-get ready, be ready, stay ready, and don't miss that message-will try to put it on the website asap.
Have a God honoring day-PASTOR JOE

Why?

The Lord has blessings for us and often we refuse to enjoy them for lesser things. These lesser things may be good, but never as good as what God desired to bless us with.
Think deeply about what I just said and don't miss God's best- PASTOR JOE

The Future before us

Last night we had a glimpse of the future before us-about 50 children and youth were awarded for being involved in church activities. Wow! God bless and use all of them for His glory.
What are we doing to help the church of tomorrow?
Have a great day, and be a blessing to as many as you can-PASTOR JOE

Why does God bless the sinful people?

I do believe that is a question worthy of thought time. God why bless the wicked? The lost nations You bless-why?
That is the question we will look at tonight in our 1 Samuel study. Tomorrow, I shall share some notes on the subject.
Think about your answer- have a good one and be nice-PASTOR JOE

Meaningful

What have we done lately that was meaningful? What a great question. How do we answer that question? It is worth thinking about.

MOTHERS

What a day of worship yesterday. 90 came. We had a wonderful choir special, Tonya sang a great new song, and I spoke on Mothers-what the Bible teaches about them-wow!!! Then we closed the service with everyone in the altar with a mother.....to God be the glory...
Now the hard part living towards Mothers as the Bible says-let's get busy especially the love and respect part.
Have a good one-PASTOR JOE......

REWARD DAY IS COMING

Believe it or not, like it or not rewards day is coming- the judgment day is ahead-God help us to get ready.
Are you ready-why not?
It may be sooner than we think.
I am so glad we christians can have our sins forgiven- 1 John 1: 9. If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. GLORY.
Think on these matters and have a blessed day-PASTOR JOE

Friday- a blessing?

OK it is Friday. Is it a blessing or a curse to you? For me I try to take some time for myself. Later today, I want to check on Mildred who is 95 and in the hospital doing well-she may get to come home tomorrow.
But most of today, I hope to work on my second book some. It will be different, and a self-help type book for everyone especially Christians.
So what are you up to today, and tonight? Have a good one-PASTOR JOE

WHO DO YOU TRUST?

Last night we had a Bible study in 1 Samuel 14, and learned that Jonathan's armor bearer trusted Jonathan with his very life. Who do we trust with our life? Who do we trust at all?
Can we be trusted? God has given us all great gifts to be used for his glory-are we?
Think about this-PASTOR JOE
