From The Bishop’s Hea

Hello Church,      
 

       Maybe it was just me, but June was a month of wonderful times, events, joy and battles. For every blessing God gives, satan will try to destroy. People must learn this and be ready for the fight. We’ve been fasting and praying, and I’ve seen the results. No matter what satan does, God wins every time. There may be a struggle, and you may get a bruise or a bump, but you will be ok.

     The church picnic, then VBS, then the convention. Sundays and Wednesdays, active ministries, pretty much every day of the week. Outings, bible studies, group meetings and more. You got to love it and hopefully you’re a part of it in some way. It can rush you but motivate you. It can wear you out but also help you find strength you didn’t know you had. Sounds a little like climbing a mountain. Imagine that.

     Serving God is not always fun, or exciting. There are times we must sacrifice. Do you remember the last time you sacrificed for the Lord? I don’t mean give or go to church. I mean giving and doing something that hurts, for Him. We are blessed to have a lot of them kind of people. Question, are you one of those kind of people? I pray you are, because we are climbing a mountain that requires us all to go above and beyond. Remember, even though there is pain, there is promise. Tears are the language of God. He sees them and He feels them. The old song says, “hang on my child, joy comes in the morning”.

     You are loved and you are appreciated. Don’t get away from the flock. Stay close. Let us see what July has in store.       

                                   

                                           In His service and yours,

                                           With all my Heart,

                                           Love,

                                           Bishop Conard
