From the Pastor's Heart
“I will Bless the Lord at all times and His Praises Shall Continually Be in my Mouth!”
It is beyond a doubt, a privilege and a “Plum Sweet Pleasure” to serve this People of God. As I stroll down Memory Lane, I am reminded of the commitment I covenanted between God, the Church, and Myself; not just as a Preacher but more so as a Christian . . . . “We engage therefore by the aid of the Holy Spirit to walk together in Christian love; in knowledge, in holiness, and in comfort; to promote into prosperity and spirituality; to sustain its worship, ordinances, discipline, and doctrines: . . . We further engage to watch over one another in brotherly love;”
Church Family, in order to ultimately please God, and please Him, we must be, we’ve got to be “sold out, we’ve got to hold out and be fully committed to Him.” I am certain there are times we may feel certain it’s time to throw in the towel, but I’d just like to appeal to the fight you still have left in you; Stay the Course, stay focused on Jesus, and He will strengthen thine Heart.
Please allow me to graciously thank you all for your supportiveness and for how you have engaged in every challenge I’ve accepted, for you have always been there with me. Once again “Thank You” and God Bless Your Hearts Real Good!!
