If you live in Florida or one of the States that are in the path of a tropical storm, you will receive warnings of a disaster that is about to come. This may cause fear or anxiety.
But God tells us in this beautiful verse that He loves us and wants us to have peace. So, if you feel stressed today, take comfort from God’s word.
Make preparations to withstand the storm but trust God to bring you through whatever storm you have in your life.
Do yo get tired of all the talking about things that may be doubtful?
Can we trust the newscasters? The printed words that are just gossip. Words that are hurtful from a friend or relative. Foul language from movies or television. There are many ways we get words that we don’t want to read or listen to.
Good News! There is one place we can go where we know the words are pure and truthful. That is in this Bible.
God’s word brings comfort to hurting hearts. The Bible has many exciting stories if you are looking for excitement. Daniel, David, Esther and many more.
The Bible has answers to our life’s problems. In it is truth and tells of a person who can help us in every situation. His name is Jesus.
So pick up that wonderful Book today and find truth.
What a statement. We go to God with the big things in our lives. Illness, family disagreements, loss of job or worse. Death of a loved one. Any huge problem we run to Him.
What about the small things? A parking place, lost keys, color of an item we want to buy, anything that happens in our daily routine. Does God care about that? YES.
If God knows us so well that even the hair on our head is numbered, don’t you think he cares about all the little things? God loves us so much that he cares and listens to the smallest things in our life.
Like a small child trusts Mom or Dad to fix anything. A broken toy, an injured finger, hurt feelings. We listen and do everything to help our child because we care.
We are God’s children and He cares for every area of our life. Even the small things.
Maybe you cannot go to church because of illness, your job or family responsibilities. God understands.
But, you may have stopped going during Covid and never went back. Disagreement with a church member or hurt feelings. Think about it. Are those really valid reasons for staying home?
We do have many ways to get church services on TV, radio or YouTube. But does that really satisfy?
We miss fellowship with other Christians. We miss the opportunity to see people baptized after they have been saved. Sometimes we may miss seeing the Holy Spirit working in the hearts of others. We also miss the opportunity to help someone else who may need us to be their friend.
Have you ever been on a trip, in a hospital or just visiting but you are longing for home?
There is an old saying “Home is where the heart is”. How true. We can be in any place and still feel at home if we are surrounded by people we love.
As Christians we should be long for HOME. Our heavenly home where we shall see Jesus and be reunited with family and friends who have gone one before us. However, while we are still traveling this earth we do have our loved One Jesus, who is with us 24/7 no matter where we are.
So, today, wherever you are you can feel at home with your Comforter and Friend Jesus but looking forward to the day when we will reach our Heavenly home.
One day as the Little Red Hen was scratching in a field, she found a grain of wheat. “This wheat should be planted,” she said. “Who will plant this grain of wheat ?” “Not I,” said the Duck. “Not I,” said the Cat. “Not I,” said the Dog. “Then I will,” said the Little Red Hen. And she did. Soon the wheat grew to be tall and yellow. “The wheat is ripe,” said the Little Red Hen. “Who will cut the wheat ?” “Not I,” said the Duck. “Not I,” said the Cat. “Not I.” said the Dog. “Then I will,” said the Little Red Hen. And she did. When the wheat was cut, the Little Red Hen said, “Who will thresh this wheat ?” “Not I,” said the Duck. “Not I,” said the Cat. “Not I,” said the Dog. “Then I will,” said the Little Red Hen.’ And she did. When the wheat was all threshed, the Little Red Hen said, “Who’ll take this wheat to the mill?” “Not I,” said the Duck. “Not I,” said the Cat. “Not I,” said the Dog. “Then I will,” said the Little Red Hen. And she did. She took the wheat to the mill and had it ground into flour. Then she said, “Who will make this flour into bread ?” “Not I,” said the, Duck. “Not I,” said the Cat. “Not I,” said the Dog. “Then I will,” said the Little Red Hen. And she did. She made and baked the bread. Then she said, “Who will eat this bread ?” “Oh! I will,” said the Duck. “And I will,” said the Cat. “And I will,” said the Dog. “No, no!” said the Little Red Hen. “I will do that.” And she did.
This story was read to me as a child, to teach the value of work. Today I see it from a Christian perspective. There are people who are not saved and many Christians are not willing to go out and work in God’s fields. There are only a few “Little Red Hens” in our churches today. Be a “Little Red Hen” today and witness for The Lord.
John 4:35 Say not ye, There are yet four months, and then cometh harvest? behold, I say unto you, Lift up your eyes, and look on the fields; for they are white already to harvest.
SOS Events Team Members are resourceful. They were unable to take a display board to Montana so they made a poster board sign. Then used the little flip board to win people to the Lord.
This SOS Team is from Church on the Rock in Plant City, Florida and have reported 3 salvations so far. Praise the Lord!
Please continue to pray for SOS Teams as the ministry continues to grow.
“And he gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers; For the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ:” Ephesians 4:11-12
