Easter is Just Around the Corner!

Easter is Just Around the Corner!

First, I want to thank you for your prayers for our trip to Lindale, Texas where we preached a memorial service celebrating Pat’s brother, Leonard’s life and home-going. When I gave the invitation after presenting the Gospel, a number of people publicly indicated they had prayed to accept Jesus as their Savior and Lord. We are praying now that they will find a church this Sunday, tell the pastor what the Lord has done for them at the funeral and ask for help in growing as a Christian. God answered prayers for our safety as we drove home through a blinding rain storm.  Please continue to pray for Pat and Leonard’s family in their time of sorrow.

In just 4 short weeks, we will be celebrating the resurrection of our Lord. We are planning a sunrise service and a very special Easter worship service at 10:30 am, unlike any we have done before. Please take this opportunity to bring people with you to church for both services. Start now praying for the ones God wants you to bring.

If you can help share the Gospel by handing out tracts at the Rabbit Festival March 15, at the Burton Coliseum, come and get in on the blessing. Time will be announced.

We love you. See you Sunday.

Bro. Alan

The fruit of the Spirit should be showing up in ou The fruit of the Spirit should be showing up in our everyday lives, not just on Sunday mornings.

How we love others, respond when we're frustrated, show patience, and treat the people around us says a lot about what God is doing in our hearts.

Love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control. As we walk with Jesus, the Holy Spirit works in us to grow these qualities and make us more like Him.

Stop feeding what you're asking God to help you st Stop feeding what you're asking God to help you starve. What we watch, listen to, dwell on, and allow to shape our thinking matters. Walking in the Spirit means intentionally filling our lives with God's truth and making room for obedience to grow.

Temptation often begins with a thought, a desire, Temptation often begins with a thought, a desire, or a moment when we let our guard down. The key is to respond before it takes root. Turn away, set a boundary, pray, reach out to someone you trust, and bring your thoughts under the leadership of the Holy Spirit.

Choose obedience while the choice is still in front of you.
Have you ever promised yourself you'd try harder, Have you ever promised yourself you'd try harder, only to end up right back where you started? Willpower can build habits, but it can't transform your heart. Real spiritual growth comes from walking in the Spirit and depending on God daily.

You don't have to fight the battle in your own strength.
