Thank you to Mr. Franklin and the Four W’s for hosting us and our youth yesterday. We enjoyed ourselves and learned many lessons. Here are a few photos from the outing.
The Psalmist reminds us in Psalm 100:1 to Make a joyful noise unto the Lord, all ye lands. Even when life has its share of downfalls, we are simply told to praise the Lord. The believer in Christ is to always give thanks and praise to the Lord. Be encouraged in the Lord, praise the Lord going in and praise the Lord coming out of life situations. He will never leave you nor forsake you for we know we can always depend on Him. Remember Psalms 100:5 tells us why we should give Him praise: For the Lord is good; His mercy is everlasting and His truth endureth to all generations. Whatever situations that come in our lives and in all things give God praise.

Fellow Saints,
Paul tells us in this 2nd Epistle to his son (Timothy) For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; (intimidation) but of power, (in our Christ) and of love, (that is shared abroad in our heart) and of a sound mind. (Having the mind of our Lord Jesus Christ!!!). 2 Timothy 1:7
Saints we are facing some challenging times but let us hold fast to our profession and our faith, for God who is faithful, promised to never leave us alone. We know we are living in some fearful times but remember we have God that is fearless. For fear is of the evil one. (He) THE LORD has given us boldness in Him. Always remember, take heart, and be encouraged and never discouraged for the Lord our God is with thee. Choose to stay encouraged in the Christ we serve.
Saints also always remember when life presents its problems, and you know it will, you can always take it to the Lord Jesus in prayer!
