Greetings PCF family! Let me begin by telling you what an amazing night of worship we had last night at choir rehearsal. The choir is always good but last night was amazing which leads me to my next announcement. This coming Sunday is going to be a communion Sunday and I will tell you that the music is going to be outstanding. Don’t miss it! The choir is so good I wish we could share their talents with more people. Their music is a blessing.
Today’s bible contemplation comes from Psalm 119:114. Yes that is not a mistake, verse 114. Psalm 119 is the longest Psalm. “You are my refuge and my shield; I have put my hope in your word. How do we get to the place in life where we put our hope in God’s word? I mean learn to literally live our life hour by hour by the guidance of God’s word? Biblical Hope is a confident expectation in what God has promised in His word. If we could just learn to trust it and believe in it with confidence. My PCF brothers an sisters, pray for one another that we may all grow our faith in God’s word.
