From the Associate Pastor - September 1, 2011

When I sat down to write the article for this newsletter, I looked up at the book shelves and saw a picture of my three children when they were ages 5, 3, and 1. The frame holding the picture says “sweet memories.” As I reflected back over the years, it truly did bring to mind the years of joy, love, and laughter we had and still have growing together as a family. Sure, Martha and I have had our share of disappointment, pain, and frustration but I mostly remember the happier times. I also thought of how Jesus has walked with us all these years, sharing in our ups and downs and upholding us with His powerful hand. I pray that you take some time and reflect on how Jesus’ sanctifying grace has sustained you through all of your life’s experiences. In Hebrews 13:8 it says that “Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today and forever.” (NIV)

He truly loves each of us with an unending love.
