In life when someone points out our flaws we quickly learn how to make excuses rather than learn how to make improvements. If we do own the flaw, if the flaw is how we act then we should try to change. Philippians 3:13-14 "Brethren, I do not count myself to have apprehended; but one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind and reaching forward to those things which are ahead, I press toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus." Say our problem is to be negative all the time and we make an excuse like, 'I'm just a perfectionist.' We are in fact holding onto our problem and if we are going to move forward then we can't keep excusing it. Paul's advice was to keep pressing, keep changing for the prize of God is before you. Have a super day and don't forget to move your time machine ahead 1 hour tomorrow night.
This Sunday morning I'll be sharing on, 'Are You Still?' Are you still trying to become who you committed yourself to become. I have found that I need His Divine help to empower me to reach the places He wants me to reach.
Next Saturday March 19th 8:30 am is our annual Men's Breakfast at the Salvation Army church. Our guest speaker will be the National Director for the Canadian Fellowship of Christian Ministries Pastor David McGrew. Pastor David will also be ministering on Sunday the 20th of March in our church.
Coming up on the Easter Weekend Mary MacLean has been working hard on a drama presentation. It will be performed on the Saturday evening of March 26th, more details to follow.
We now have several requests for Water Baptism. We are planning for the evening of Sunday April 10th at the Faith Baptist Church. If you need to be water baptized please contact Pastor Bruce for more details.
Continue to pray for all those in need, looking forward to seeing you soon, lots of love, Pastor Kevin and Alice
