Good morning PCF family. The sun is currently shining, hallelujah! It is a time like I have never seen in my 63 1/2 years but as I read the stories in the bible, I see that humanity has gone through far worse many times in the past. Let me give you something to do if you begin experiencing anxiety or fear or even loneliness while we are all quarantined.
Rather than sit and worry about what might be, what if, etc. go to Gods word and read the Psalms, Read Isaiah, Read the book of John, and talk with God and ask Him to fill you with His wisdom and the Holy Spirit. Take this time to listen to Him and do what He is directing you to do! There will always be something to do because we can only love like Jesus wants us to love when we are doing! Just absorbing His word will not bring you the fullness of life that is promised. Just listening to sermons, no matter how great they are, will not not bring you the peace and fulfillment that you are seeking. There is always homework. The Holy Spirit will always take Gods instruction and speak to your heart directing you to do what He wants you to do for is Kingdom. It is in that doing that His power will be released into your life as it is also released into the world.
If you need to speak to me about anything, call me. We can visit over the phone safely. I am here for you. But don’t waste this opportunity to use this unique circumstance we find ourselves in to reconnect with Jesus!
Philippians 4:6-7 . do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. 7 And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.
Isaiah 41:10 fear not, for I am with you; be not dismayed, for I am your God; I will strengthen you, I will help you, I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.
I’ll be in touch! Love, pastor kent . 125, I still believe!
