Nuggets From May FB Posts

We were so blessed in May to take over a 1000 piece product delivery to the Hope Aglow Prison Ministry in Lynchburg Virginia...  This included Bibles, Books, and Cassettes... Already we have 5 more boxes of product ready to go on load 2 coming soon..
In a few days I will be updating you guys on New partnerships we have formed this year.. We look for stability, accountability, and productivity in ministries we plan to sow alot into... God has given us some very good ones and as I said in a few days I will Tell you more about it........
Here are some nuggets from My FB.......

Courage is a road that travels the mountain tops( of encouragement) and the valleys (of discouragement) of Life... Sometimes we feel very bold and at other times it seems our courage slips out the backdoor and leaves us feeling very insecure and vulnerable... There are 2 ways to keep courage close at hand: one is to meditate on the promises of God found in His Holy Unchanging Word and the other is to talk to a trusted friend (Prayer To God) about everything we face in Life...

The law says " if you go to work you'll be blessed".... Grace says, "you are blessed , Go to work" ( from one of my newest messages). And another, "True peace is more than a calm exterior; Peace is a quiet heart".....

God gives His word as His standard for our living and for our guidance as well!! He also gives His word for our comfort because He loves us.. whenever we look around and wonder what the future holds and we have questions about the direction of our lives, our nation, and our world; sometimes we have concerns about our finances, our jobs and our families. It's then that we are reminded on every page of the Holy Word of God that kings, nations, and economies do not hold the fate of our lives; only God does, and He is a God of comfort and love. He has a future and a hope for us!! There is no human weapon of man that can blow the promises off the pages of the Bible!!!

Puritan Thomas Watson said, "There are no sins God's people are more subject to than unbelief and impatience; they are ready, either to faint through unbelief , or to fret through impatience..". We don't learn character when life is cruising along going great- only when it demands us to reach within and discover new patience from the Lord, new faith in God, and new heavenly resources to overcome the obstacles... God grant us patient hearts of endurance each day!!!

Many things in life are only temporary. A gallon of milk, a loaf of bread, a carton of eggs all have expiration dates. The storms you are in have an expiration date, and they too will soon expire. So hold on, don't give up now. Put on a smile and press on. Your day is almost here. The problems you face are about to expire.... In order for Peace to develop and grow in us, there has to be a storm.. In order to have courage grounded in God, there have to be opportunities to flee and hide.... I will be talking about these things in detail in my upcoming series , "Courage In This Chaos"..... also talking about it on the show tomorrow night... 

If we are going to be able to live victorious, overcoming, courageous lives in these days of uncertainty, chaos, and fear..... we will need to be calm in our hearts, loving and compassionate toward others, constructive and Christ centered in our relationships, challenged to grow in Him consistently,and connected to the Church!!! We are created to live in community not isolation.. The New Testament has many "One Another" and "Each Other" tasks for us.. ( encourage one another, love one another, bear with one another, to name three.) Today, go with God rejoicing!!! Many blessings!!
