God Is In Control

The election is over, the people have spoken, but more important we are reminded, God is in control. We have our convictions and our political persuasion's and those don't change but we are called to do the following:

Pray for our leaders.
Respect those in authority.
Follow the law of the land (except when it forces us to go against God's Word)
Remind ourselves that the only real hope for people is found in Jesus.
Remember that the heart of the king is in the hands of God.
Work to build the Kingdom of God.
Take courage for God is still on His throne.

The Seeker's Series

Starting this Sunday I will begin a new series entitled "The Seeker's". In this series I will address why people seek Jesus. While there are some who seem to not seek the Lord I believe all people seek truth and we know Jesus is the "Truth".

My first message will focus on the the Wise men who came from the east seeking the king of the
Jews. I will make the point that people who are far away from God many times come to the point of longing to draw closer to the Lord. Tragically it seem that those closest to the truth seem to ignore what is right in front of them.

The Bible encourages all of us to "seek the Lord while he may be found". I hope and pray this series will help all of us to draw closer to Jesus.
