Stay the Course

For the past few weeks our Pastor has reminded us and challenged us to stay the course. The powerful messages he has shared are truly from the Lord because of the relevance and alignment with Scriptures. The litmus test is the Word and his sermons have passed. But the real question is:

We may have heard but will we obey?

This question must be asked by us all because as a family satan will try any means to get in. Let's all make sure we are not the weak link in the body.

Now for the future. God has a lot for us and I will be challenging all of you to rise to the challenge. I know you can do it or I wouldn't be asking. But in some cases God will be providing the know-how and strength. For example, we have a team going on a mission trip in September and just tonight the Youth asked about a mission trip in October. Then you mix in 40 Days music and Christmas - we have our hands full. But under God's strength and direction it can and should be done.

I am praying for you all,
Bro. Tom
