Our hearts are heavy, yet rejoicing, as we share the news that our beloved pastor and teacher John MacArthur has entered into the presence of the Savior. This evening, his faith became sight. He faithfully endured until his race was run.
2 Timothy 4:1-8
He who acquires a heart of wisdom loves his own soul;
He who keeps discernment will find good.
Listen to counsel and receive discipline,
That you may be wise in the end of your days.
Proverbs 19:8, 20
Listening to a bunch of 9-year-old boys discuss global conflicts/who is the most threatening world power, followed by who can affect the most convincing country accent (some of them don’t have to try very hard).

Let us walk properly as in the day, not in carousing and drunkenness, not in sexual promiscuity and sensuality, not in strife and jealousy.
But put on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make no provision for the flesh in regard to its lusts.
Romans 13:13-14
Better is reproof that is revealed
Than love that is hidden.
Faithful are the wounds of a friend,
But deceitful are the kisses of an enemy.
A satisfied soul tramples the honeycomb,
But to a hungry soul any bitter thing is sweet.
Proverbs 27:5-7
It is better to live in the corner of a roof than in a house shared with a contentious woman.
It is better to live in a desert land than with a contentious and vexing woman.
Proverbs 21:9, 19
Let love be without hypocrisy—by abhorring what is evil, clinging to what is good,
being devoted to one another in brotherly love, giving preference to one another in honor,
not lagging behind in diligence, being fervent in spirit, serving the Lord.
Romans 12:9-11
When we finally move to permanent DLST, it’s gonna feel so dumb trying to explain to our kids that we used to do this.

Teacher:
“Any questions about the feeding of the 5000 here? This is an interesting miracle.”
9 year old boy:
“Did they cut the ends off the fish before they ate them or did they just eat the whole thing like with the eyeballs and the skeletons and everything?”
Can’t quite articulate it, but it is profound how often little children have been represented (& not just in policy, but literally visibly) from the start of this administration. So thankful to the Lord for this President. May God’s mercy to our country lead many to repentance!
