Past Events:
Our Matinee BBQ was a huge success! We ate some delicious hot dogs and burgers with some yummy ice cream sundae's for desert. Then we went into the sanctuary for the movie "Grease". You could hear laughter and singing along with the movie the whole time! Thank you to all who joined us! And special thanks to Beth Britt, Autumn Phelps and Curtis Britt, who made it all possible! Some photos of the event listed below...
Scripture Reading:
Ezekiel 28: 1-5
“‘In the pride of your heart
you say, “I am a god;
I sit on the throne of a god
in the heart of the seas.”
But you are a mere mortal and not a god,
though you think you are as wise as a god.
3 Are you wiser than Daniela]">[a]?
Is no secret hidden from you?
4 By your wisdom and understanding
you have gained wealth for yourself
and amassed gold and silver
in your treasuries.
5 By your great skill in trading
you have increased your wealth,
and because of your wealth
your heart has grown proud.
And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.
Bad stuff happens.
We face this reality every day because we live in a fallen world subject to decay and death. Plus, we live among people who are fallen, broken, and sinful - just as we are. Satan has a part to play in the bad stuff. Our sins and their consequences also play a part. The rebellion against God and the spiritual weakness in those we love bring hurtful things into our lives. Sometimes, God disciplines us to awaken us out of lethargy or correct some sinful problem in our lives. Yet in all these things, we have an incredible promise: If we love God and are seeking to honor his purpose in our lives, our Father in heaven will work out all of those things - the difficult ones and the great ones - going on in our lives to turn out for our ultimate good.
Father, we appreciate your promise to work out all things in our lives toward our best good. We ask, dear Father, for faith to believe this promise is true during painful and difficult times we face. We ask for patience, O God, to hang on to our convictions when trying times persist and we don't understand why they are happening. We believe your promise, dear LORD, and look forward to what you will eventually make of us when you finish with your work in us. We will wait for the dawn of that glorious day with faith and hope. In Jesus' mighty name, we pray. Amen.
