Sunday's Coming

Good Morning,

Thank you for your prayers, e-mails and calls; what a blessing you are to us. Your support makes all the difference, so again, Thank You. 

We began our services last Sunday, we had a great day. It was good to see God at work here.  The park owner was even in attendance. Thanks again for all your help.




In my reading today, I want to share this:

Joy is Yours
By Jim Burns

Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice!
—Philippians 4:4

Did you know that over 500 times in the Bible we are commanded to rejoice? The Living Bible says, “Be full of joy.” Every morning I repeat a particular verse in the Psalms to myself. In fact some mornings I say it while looking in the mirror, because I don’t feel joyful. Nevertheless, this verse is forever true and always helpful. 

Here it is:
“This is the day the Lord has made, let us rejoice and be glad in it” (Psalm 118:24).
The truth of that Psalm helps me get my day started on the right track. I have found that if I start my day rejoicing in the Lord, my day will be full of joy. A great preacher once said, 
“The surest mark of a Christian is not faith or even love but joy.”
Did you know that Jesus came to give you joy, a deep, overflowing joy that only comes from God? Jesus said, 
“I have told you this so that my joy may be in you and that your joy may be complete” (John 15:11).

God’s kind of joy is not a giddy, superficial good feeling. Rather, His joy runs deep. Even during the tough times it prevails in your soul.

Have a great day, love you, pass it on!
Don
