AHHHHHHHHHHHH

Hey there,
Here is another edition of midweek thoughts and i hope you like it. Last Sunday night we worked through the first half of Psalms 37. It was a very encouraging and challenging text to me. Some of the highlights: God will Act, He will not for get you, He laughs at the schemes of the wicked, do good and trust Him. This week we will finish up the rest of the chapter. Why don't you take a few minutes right now and read that chapter. Hope you have a great rest of the day. He is with you!
Invite someone to come on Sunday night.
p.s. Use the resources over on the right side of the page, there is a lot of good stuff.

Midweek Thoughts

All Readers!!!!
Hello, hope you all are doing good and finding Joy in Him. I have been thinking a lot lately about Mathew 13:44. Before we move on stop and read that verse.







Jesus is the treasure! Do you we know that? What does it look like for someone who finds ultimate joy in Jesus and not in things. Think about this quote.

"The critical question for our generation-and for every generation- is this: If you could have heaven, with no sickness, and with all the friends you ever had on earth, and all the food you ever liked, and all the leisure activities you ever enjoyed, and all the natural beauties you ever saw, all the physical pleasures you have ever tasted, and no human conflict or and natural disasters, could you be satisfied with heaven, if Christ was not there?" John Piper

I wonder?

This coming Sunday we will be in Psalms 37 and will be talking about some of these things. Read Psalms 37. Why do many of the wicked prosper and many of God's people go through hard times? We will see that God does not forsake His saints. Be patience in the end we will reign forever with Jesus and God's justice will prevail. We have riches at all times cause we have the ULTIMATE treasure on earth: Jesus!!!!!!! If you love Jesus you are a son or daughter of the most High God! Trust Him.

Hello Readers,
Hope things are going good out there with everyone. I want to give you a few updates about the coming weeks. Sunday we were blessed to have Jason from West Frankfort to come in a speak for us. His hope was that our view of Jesus would expand and i think for most of us that happened. In the coming 10-15 weeks we will be going through ten Psalms in our Ten Psalms Series(Get it? Haha). Here are the ones we are going to be preaching through.

Midweek Thoughts and Song

Before the Throne of God Above: Charitie Bancroft 1863

Before the throne of God above
I have a strong and perfect plea.
A great high Priest whose Name is Love
Who ever lives and pleads for me.
My name is graven on His hands,
My name is written on His heart.
I know that while in Heaven He stands
No tongue can bid me thence depart.

When Satan tempts me to despair
And tells me of the guilt within,
Upward I look and see Him there
Who made an end of all my sin.
Because the sinless Savior died
My sinful soul is counted free.
For God the just is satisfied
To look on Him and pardon me.

Behold Him there the risen Lamb,
My perfect spotless righteousness,
The great unchangeable I AM,
The King of glory and of grace,
One in Himself I cannot die.
My soul is purchased by His blood,
My life is hid with Christ on high,
With Christ my Savior and my God!


This is why i love Hymns! Read this! Do you SEE the GOSPEL?
Sunday we will finish up John 17. Will you join me in reading ahead please?
