Spring Rejoicing

 Well, here we are in the Spring of 2011.  We are seeing some signs to let us know it's getting closer.  But what about the Spring time in your heart, and rejoicing in the Love of God?  Are you rejoicing in Him today?  Paul wrote to the Philippian believers:
 
Phil. 4:4, "Rejoice in the Lord alway: and again I say, Rejoice."
 
  May God help us to fill our minds and hearts with the many reasons we have to "Rejoice" in Him today.
 
Perhaps today! 
Love to you all,
Pastor John
 
PS:  Please remember these in prayer:

Spring Is Sprung, For Some

 

I hope you are enjoying the beautiful weather God has been sharing with us.  He has been giving us great signs of Spring, and warmer than normal temperatures to show us His loving-kindness and tender mercy.

 

  In my devotions this morning, I was reading Ps. 73.  It is a great psalm that shows the feelings we at times can get when we wonder why some have life so easy, and we seem to struggle.  The psalmist goes into the house of God, and in fellowship with God and His word and will, comes to the conclusion, that some have temporary blessings, while believers have both temporary and eternal blessings.  He comes to this wonderful conclusion:

 

Psalm. 73:25-26, “Whom have I in heaven but thee? and there is none upon earth that I desire beside thee.  My flesh and my heart faileth: but God is the strength of my heart, and my portion for ever.”

 

  Enjoy Him and His wonderful workings today and every day.  Remember also, we are one day closer to home!

Perhaps today!   

Love to you all,

Pastor John
