Good Morning,  

Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who according to His great mercy has caused us to be born again to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, to obtain an inheritance which is imperishable and undefiled and will not fade away, reserved in heaven for you, who are protected by the power of God through faith for a salvation ready to be revealed in the last time. 1 Peter 1.3-5.  We have not seen God, but through the work of the Holy Spirit, we have seen His glorious works and we love and believe Him.  Our faith is more precious than gold and we should contend earnestly for it.

Good Morning,  

According to the scriptures, God does not change. Malachi 3.6.  And Jesus Christ, is the same today as He was yesterday and will remain so forever. Hebrews 3.8.  This unchanging God can and will change a life of sin and disobedience to a life of purity, righteousness and godliness, if we will cease our conformity to the world and study His word, know it and keep it,  He will transform us through Jesus Christ, who is the way, the truth and the life, calling you from darkness and into His marvelous light. John 14.6; 1 Peter 2.9.  And if we remain faithful until death and we will receive the promised crown of life. Revelation. 2.10.  There is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved. Acts 4.12.

Good Morning,  

We are more than conquerors through Him who loved us.  And I am persuaded that neither death nor life nor angels, nor principalities nor powers nor things present nor things to to come nor height nor depth nor any other created thing shall be able to separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord. Romans 8..37-39.  God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us. Romans 5.8.  The love of Christ which surpasses all knowledge so we may be filled with all the fullness of God. Ephesians 3.19.  If we are to have the mind of Christ, then we must let our love toward others grow just as His love for us.  So let your love grow through study, knowledge and the doing of His commandments.  

Hope everyone has a great Saturday.  I am looking forward to being with you in the morning to express our love for God through worship.

GoodMorning,  

Are you weary, are you heavy hearted?  Jesus has the answer; "Come to Me all you who labor and are heavy hearted, and I will give you rest.  Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me for I am gentle and lowly in in heart and you will find rest for your souls.  My yoke is easy and My burden is light." Matthew 11.28-30.  And to the faithful He said:"I will never leave you nor forsake you.. So we may boldly say: The Lord is my helper, I have no fear, what can man do to me?"  So if you find yourself burdened with this wicked and perverse generation, TURN YOUR EYES UPON JESUS LOOK FULL IN HIS WONDERFUL FACE, AND The THINGS OF EARTH WILL GROW SLOWLY DIM IN THE LIGHT OF HIS GLORY AND GRACE!

Good Morning,

It's such a pretty day today in St. John  The sun is brightly shining and God is showing His splendor and beauty in all the eye can see and the hands touch.

Father, thank you for this day you have provided for us, for your word on which we stand that guides us and gives us hope and reason to go on.  The heavens truly declare your glory and the firmament shows your handiwork. Psalms 19.1.  While even though our outward man is perishing yet the inner man is being renewed day by day 2 Corinthians 4.16, as we study your word to hear and do Your will.  Thank you, Father, for all you do to help us on our journey through this pilgrim land to our eternal, heavenly home.  In Jesus name we pray. AMEN
