BLESSINGS FROM THE HEART

“THAT’S NOT ME!”
II Corinthians 4:5-6
"For we do not preach ourselves, but Jesus Christ as Lord, and ourselves as your servants for Jesus' sake. For God, who said, ‘Let light shine out of darkness,’ made His light shine in our hearts to give us the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Christ."
Saturday afternoon I stood at the graveside of a 61 year-old man. We had just come from the funeral service and this was the committal service. I had just read a passage of Scripture when I heard an intake of breath and several hushed comments.
Briefly I wondered what I had said that had made such an impact. It was evident that something was taking place behind me that was capturing the attention of the few family and friends who gathered there.
After I had concluded with a prayer I turned to see what others had been seeing. There, not over 50 yards distance, were two lovely deer. They were peacefully munching away on floral arrangements people had placed over the headstones of their loved ones.
This beautiful incident has reminded me that I am never responsible for the reactions of people around me. The people at this service were far more impressed by what they were seeing than what I was saying.
God wants to be in absolute and complete control of the affairs of His people. We are not the ones to receive the glory---He is the One! Anytime we try to bring glory to ourselves we are entering the “minefield” of pride.
So what is our responsibility as the Lord’s servants? Paul makes it quite clear in today’s Scripture; "For we do not preach ourselves, but Jesus Christ as Lord, and ourselves as your servants for Jesus' sake.” He also advised Timothy in Second Timothy 2:15; “Do your best to present yourself to God as one approved, a workman who does not need to be ashamed and who correctly handles the Word of truth.”
What are you doing with your life? Are you presenting yourself to Him in order that He can use you for His service, or are you working in order to be seen by others? I pray it is the former!
"For we do not preach ourselves, but Jesus Christ as Lord, and ourselves as your servants for Jesus' sake.
Blessings dear hearts. Walk with God today. Trust Him completely and become a real blessing.

So foolish [was] I, and ignorant: I was [as] a beast before thee. Nevertheless I [am] continually with thee: thou hast holden [me] by my right hand. Thou shalt guide me with thy counsel, and afterward receive me [to] glory.
~~Reflection~~
As Christians, we still sin and act foolishly, but God continues to be with us and guide us onto the right path. After our life is through, He takes us to heaven to live eternally with Him! O, what great grace we have been given! ~~ http://promises.blueletterbible.org/

Dear Friends, LET US NOT GIVE UP MEETING TOGETHER
AS SOME ARE IN THE HABIT OF DOING, BUT LET US
ENCOURAGE ONE ANOTHER-AND ALL THE MORE AS
YOU SEE THE DAY APPROACHING. ( HEBREWS 10:25 )
Now I know that you may be asked by some, "Why Go
To Church?" So...........
Why Go To Church?
A Church goer wrote a letter to the editor of a newspaper and
complained that it made no sense to go to church every Sunday.
"I've gone for 30 years now," he wrote, "and in that time I have
heard something like 3,000 sermons. But for the life of me, I
can't remember a single one of them. So, I think I'm wasting my
time and the Pastor's are wasting theirs by giving sermons at all."
This started a real controversy in the "Letters to the Editor"
column, much to the delight of the editor. It went on for weeks
until someone wrote this clincher: "I've been married for 30 years
now. In that time my wife has cooked some 32,000 meals. But,
for the life of me, I cannot recall the entire menu for a single one
of those meals.
However I do know this... They all nourished me and gave me
the strength I needed to do my work. If my wife had not given me
these meals, I would be physically dead today.
Likewise, if I had not gone to church for nourishment, I would
be spiritually dead today!" Thank God for our physical and our
spiritual nourishment! So COME, LET US
BOW DOWN IN WORSHIP, LET US KNEEL BEFORE THE
LORD OUR MAKER, FOR HE IS OUR GOD AND WE ARE THE
PEOPLE OF HIS PASTURE, THE FLOCK UNDER HIS CARE.
Amen! ( PSALM 95:6-7 )
So I'll see you in Church Today my friend! You will find me in
the front row, if not in person, then in spirit!
In HIS Love & Service,
Pastor Allen

Ephesians 5: 1-2
Be ye therefore followers of God, as dear children; and walk in love, as Christ also hath loved us, and hath given himself for us an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweetsmelling savour.
Just as children imitate their parents, we should follow God's example. His great love for us led Him to sacrifice Himself so that we might live! Our love for others should be of the same kind--a love that goes beyond affection to self-sacrificing service.
God, we want to truly be Your children. Imitating You in every way possible.
We love You Lord, we thank You Jesus! In Your Name, Amen..
Blessings!
April
