Ramblings from the Pastor-
Praise be to God from Whom all Blessings Flow! Our nation may take a collective sigh of relief that the Mastermind to our 9/11 tragedy has met justice and now will answer to his maker for his deeds. Yet, we continue to pray and work towards a peace among our peoples, by working toward the spreading of God's Kingdom. I praise God for President Obama's willingness to allow the US Navy Seals to do their work. May we continue to lift our President and all our troops in prayer so that they may do the Godly Thing.
Praise be to God the local boy scout troop was found unharmed and will have stories to tell their grandchildren for years to come. Thank the Lord for having men and young men prepared to face obstacles as SCOUTING program does.
The Waters are arising! Pray for wisdom for the Army Corp of Engineers as they make decisions on how to manage the rising waters in the Mississippi with the least amount of damage done. Some families will make sacrifices so a larger number of families won't lose their homes. May God grant them peace with these decisions and resources to recover.
