Psalm 115:3- Our God is in heaven; He does whatever pleases Him.
We have been praying for and raising money for a new roof and new air conditioning units for our sanctuary.
At times, we felt like Nehemiah due to the condition of the sanctuary, and we wondered when we would ever get to make the necessary repairs. On May 19th, we began work on these two significant projects. The AC unit that was running was on its last leg. If you attended the Good Friday Easter drama program, you felt it. The roof, we are told, has leaked since the church was built, and it has undergone multiple roof repairs to no avail. We have cried out to the Lord, trusting He would provide, and the Lord has provided the funds and the direction. Thank you, Lord, for supplying all our needs.
On Friday, the 23rd, while part of the roof was being stripped, Bro. Mike and Bro. Michael was repairing some damaged wood. During this time, the Lord sent a great flood. No, it didn’t flood the earth again, but it did flood the entire sanctuary. A little reminder to stay focused on the Lord! We cried and cried out to the Lord once again. We are not sure how it will all turn out, but we are sure God has a plan, and it will be an excellent plan because it is His. As we work, watch, and pray, I know He leads the way because His word tells us; And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to His purpose. (Rom. 8:28) And in vs 32-He who did not spare His own Son, but delivered Him up for us all, how shall He not with Him also freely give us all things? Vs 35-Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall tribulation, or distress, … or peril…? (Wait for it!) vs 37- Yet in all things we are more than conquerors through Him Who loved us. That’s it! In Christ, we can conquer anything. Job, David, Paul, John, etc., they did.
Continue to pray and seek the Lord daily so that you will have this fellowship with Him. Jesus loves you, and we do too! May the Lord bless you as you serve Him.
In Christ
Bro. Mike & Bridget
