Sunday's Specialty

Hebrews 10:25

Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is; but exhorting one another: and so much the more, as ye see the day approaching.

Good morning, and a Special Sunday morning to you all!

Today, I am thankful for the church, a place to go at appointed times to pray, worship, sing, and hear a God-called minister deliver the Word of God. It truly is a sanctuary; a safe place; a haven. I love the church!

I love to meet and greet brothers and sisters in the Lord. During our travels, we have met many wonderful children of God, full of warmth and demonstrating His love. The church is a place of belonging, a family, where we all endeavor to walk in the Spirit. 

Pre-church prayer is one of my favorite parts of church service for it's a time to seek God together for lost souls; for encouragement and strength; for Him to direct each service according to His will. 

The singing, music, worship, praise, and preaching make our church services fulfilling. But, it all ends with the greatest satisfaction whenever a soul repents at the altar. In many of our services, we experience the joy of seeing someone baptized in the name of Jesus, and rejoicing with them as they receive the Holy Ghost! 

Did I mention that I love church? Well, let me repeat, I love church! Whether in MS, LA, AR, MO, IL, TX, TN..... it's my favorite place to be!

Here's a song from long ago, but still true today:

Family of God

by Bill Gaither

Verse One

You will notice we say Brother

And Sister 'round here

It's because we're a family

And these folks are so near

When one has a heartache

We all share the tears

And rejoice with each victory

In this family so dear

Chorus

I'm so glad I'm a part

Of the family of God

I've been washed in the fountain

Cleansed by His blood

Joint heirs with Jesus

As we travel this sod

For I'm part of a family

The family of God

Verse Two

From the door of an orphanage

To the house of the King

No longer an outcast

A new song I sing

From rags unto riches

From the weak to the strong

I'm not worthy to be here

But, Praise God, I belong

It'll soon be church time here in Guy, AR, so I must close in order to get ready. God bless you all with the most special Sunday ever!

Lord willing, I'll see you again tomorrow.....
