The Good News
With all the stress of life and all the distractions thrown our way lets not forget the Good News. Pastor mentioned this the other night and went through the scriptures talking about what the Good News is. The Gospel (Good News) is centered around the fact that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures, and that He was buried and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures (1 Corinthians 15:1-4). So make it a priority not to lose sight of the reason we are here, To glorify YHVH (that is the name of the Lord). We have access to the Father through His son. Be encouraged that in the middle of your stress you can call on the name of the Lord and He will answer you and will not leave you alone (Psalm 138:3)

Still Here
Hey everyone I hope that you are all doing good and staying encouraged in the Lord. I know it has been some weeks since my last post and I apologize. I have had some crazy warfare going on in my life over the last month and I also moved out of my house as well. The Lord is on my side whom shall I fear, what can man do to me. I am learning right now to trust in the Lord with my life and lean not on my own understanding. It is tough sometimes to allow God's Word to actively work in our lives and shape us into who He wants us to be instead of our own agenda. Trusting is more than words and more than just teaching it is really relying on and putting our cares on the Lord. I really like 1 Peter 5:7 and it brings a lot of clarity to trusting in the Lord. The word there cast is referring to throwing it to Him. He does not want us to be anxious and worried and beat down (He doesn't love us any less when we are in this place, He just wants to walk with us and does not want us to fear - because He is with us). Keep me in your prayers over the next several weeks and be blessed and be vigilant as you walk with the Lord.
