Even on busy days, we can all still take a minute or two on this #NationalDayofPrayer to ask God’s blessings on our communities and our state, our nation and our world.
Don't let your news feed filter your reading of scripture. Let your reading of scripture filter your news feed. The former fuels anxiety. The latter diffuses it. https://t.co/YWHGcinoB9 via @cnieuwhof
@LeahBSassy Happy birthday Leah. San Antonio is our hometown. We marched downtown in the ‘70s in our high school band. The Riverwalk is beautiful. But you’ll have to go back during the Christmas season. Again, happy birthday.
2022 New Year’s Resolution: I will not let news and social media stories replace my faith with fear, my joy with anger, and my peace with anxiety. I refuse to live as if God were not on the throne of heaven.
@CSLCHSnMore True. Sorry my friend but too many other irons in the fire, some trying to keep a church healthy, and some family challenges. I’m glad to be kept in the loop though. I do scroll the chats sometimes. Look forward to chiming in sometime down the road. Thanks so much my friend.
Well said Beth. Joseph was only 17 when he was sold & taken to Egypt. I think of myself at 17. Yikes. Then it was 13 long lonely years as a slave & in prison. Yet when it was all done he was merciful to his brothers & in faith affirmed this was all God’s doing. Lessons learned.
“Enter his gates with thanksgiving and his courts with praise; give thanks to him and praise his name. For the Lord is good and his love endures forever; his faithfulness continues through all generations.”
Psalm 100:4-5
“Rejoice always, pray continually, give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus.”
(1 Thessalonians 5:16-18)
Happy Thanksgiving to all.
@LorriVAllen Yes. Love the way that one starts. Thursday I posted a lesson in my Psalms series on my FB page titled "Joyful Thanksgiving," covering Psalms 16; 27; 103. Prayers and blessings for you dear sister. Miss you my friend!
@bobbyross In my sermon series “What I Believe—and Why” I chose to preach today on prayer and trust in God, and yes did acknowledge the election. With the title “In God (Do) We Trust?” the emphasis was on us as individual Christians & the church and not the country. https://t.co/K8aBLksocY
My sermon this morning: “In God (Do) We Trust?” Join our service at the link below or on our West Erwin Facebook Live page at 10 AM Central Time.

@JedediahBila That's fine Jed, but let's do that in the spring when we're supposed to move the clocks up. Kinda like that extra hour of rest in the fall...
@timkellernyc 2/2 Being a student of the Bible and talking about Biblical issues doesn’t in and of itself justify or condemn anyone. It is important and essential, however. Whether it is godly and promotes God’s purposes or not is a much more incvolved discussion.
@timkellernyc 1/2 Satan is a student of the Bible. He even quoted Scripture when tempting Jesus. Jewish leaders who were students of the Bible & asked Jesus questions on Biblical topics had an agenda & were trying to entrap Him.
