A serious note from Sis. Cindy Coakley: Please pray for all of us here in south Louisiana. The approaching storm has many being evacuated and some (like me) who have to stay because of their vocation. Thank you. Love and miss you all. God Bless my church family.
Some people are kind, polite, and Sweet-spirited until you try to sit in their pews.
Many folks want to serve God, But only as advisors.
It is easier to preach ten sermons Than it is to live one.
When you get to your wit's end, You'll find God lives there.
Opportunity may knock once, but temptation Bangs on your front door forever.
IT’S A MIRACLE! God is so good! When we got home from church Wednesday night, there was a brief message from Walt Osborne asking us to pray for his mother. A car had crashed through the store where she was shopping and run over her. She was pinned under the car and various store shelving & debris. Thursday’s report said her face was crushed/fractured and had to be rebuilt. She had a broken collarbone & ankle. Didn’t know at that time what internal injuries she had. Next update, head swollen twice as big as usual, stitches everywhere from glass cuts, legs swollen twice as big with tire marks on them. Still too swollen to see about internal damage. Final update: DOESN’T have a broken ankle or collar bone, although severely bruised and sprained nothing in her body is broken. After the tests came back she DOESN’T have any internal injuries like they suspected she would with a car driving over you, her liver, kidneys, and spleen are also badly bruised, nothing life threatening! her face (right side) is broke, the eye socket, around the nose, and down the cheek, and it would take 6 plates to fix it. The good news is that even though it is broke, the specialist said that the bones are still in place so it is not necessary for her to have surgery to put the plates in. She can just be careful and not bang it until it heals in 6-8 weeks. She has been up walking with a walker for about 20 steps or so but she plans on working hard and pushing herself so she can go home. Please pray for this 77-year-old wonder! She says it’s not going to get her down. (And to think I get depressed because I can’t eat whatever I want! Shame on me!)
To you, O Lord, I lift up my soul – Psalm 25:1
If the church wants a better pastor, It only needs to pray for the one it has.
God Himself does not propose to judge A man until he is dead. So why should you?
Some minds are like concrete Thoroughly mixed up and permanently set.
I don't know why some people Change churches; what difference does it make which one you stay home from?
A lot of church members who are singing 'Standing on the Promises' Are just sitting on the premises.
We were called to be witnesses, not lawyers or judges.
Be ye fishers of men. You catch them - He'll clean them.
Coincidence is when God chooses to remain anonymous.
Don't put a question mark where God put a period.
Forbidden fruits create many jams.
God doesn't call the qualified, He qualifies the called.
God promises a safe landing, Not a calm passage.
He who angers you, controls you!
The task ahead of us is never as Great as the Power behind us.
