Spring Sunshine
Well, it's always a blessing when you have beautiful weather on the Lord's day and we did. On top of that, the flowers are looking wonderful in the flower bed as people enter into the church property.
We enjoyed in SS looking at the story of Peter and Cornelious. He was defending himself before his Jewish brethren from their accusation that he ate with the Gentiles. Praise God, they agreed with Him after he shared how God had opened the door of the Gospel to the Gentiles.
In the Sunday AM, I enjoyed going back to our theme, "Crucified with Him" and preaching on "Living for Christ" from Colossians 3:1-4. Interestingly, we can think we are living for Christ, because we know that is the right answer. But, if we evaluate our life, the facts may contradict our conclusion. We had a good time in God's Word.
It was a joy to have a Christian family of 4 visit. The young couple in this group will be married in July. Please pray for God's leading for them as to a local church and also His guidance as they prepare for marriage.
It was also our joy to add a young family to our membership. They have come for a couple of years, but it was good to see them take this important step. They have two young children.
Thanks for praying for Southside Free Baptist Church, God is working in answer to your prayers.
