Pastor’s Comments
As I was sitting at home the other evening waiting for the storm, my
mind went back to a passage from the Bible. There was a boat
(most likely a ship) that was being tossed around like a little toy
from the breaking waves and the rough wind. The boat was filled
with men, disciples and one Jesus. I've been on a few boats when a
storm rolled through, and it's not my favorite place to be. ,Jesus was
asleep down in the lower portion of that boat, probably sleeping
quite well I might add. ,His nap time was interrupted though when
his disciples came to him and basically asked him if he even cared
that they might die. We don't have a lot of dialogue after this, but
it does says he arose and went to the top of the ship and he just
looked out and said, "Peace, be still" and the wind and waves
ceased to be dangerous anymore. How often do we encounter our
own storms in life, and maybe not even physically; times when we
just don't think we can go one more step. You know Jesus is always
with us. He goes where we go and he is ABLE to help us. Isn't that
amazing? Don't wait until the storms of life bring you to your knees
before you talk to the Lord. He is available to listen....today.
God bless you for being with us today!

VACATION BIBLE SCHOOL
The meeting held last Sunday afternoon for the upcoming Vacation
Bible School was very productive. Plans are now officially underway
and we request your prayers for this effort. Please ask your neighbors to
allow their children to come and as expected, we are looking for every
member to be here.
***********************
We all go through periods of discontent, but Paul tell us in
Philippians 4:22 that he has learned in whatsoever state he is in,
therewith to be content. Perhaps we, as God’s children, should be
like Paul and like the little bird in the following:
My Song to Sing
He placed me in a little cage away
from gardens fair;
But I must sing the sweetest song
because He placed me there.
Not beat my wings against the gate if
it’s my Maker’s will,
But raise my voice to Heaven’s gate and sing the
louder still.
