Hello my Sisters and Brothers in Jesus,
I'm very excited about the opportunites that are before us in 2010. We have the opportunity to learn how to function as a healthy congregation and establish a strategic ministry plan that we can collectively put together and implement over the years to grow and strengthen God's kingdom. All of us at Friends In Christ and everyone in our Morris community need the foundation of Jesus Christ and the strength and compassion of the Body Of Christ, and we, by the help of the Holy Spirit, can be that strength and compassion.
We learned from Jesus (Luke 9:61-62) last Sunday that we need to work hard in the present and plan for the future in order for what falls into the past to be right. If we are looking at the past to see if it is right then we are distracted from the present and fail to plan for the future. What we are to do is take what we have learned along the way and apply it to the present work and also to the future plan and we will be plowing wonderfully looking fields for Jesus. We plow and scatter seed, but only God can make anything grow.
Living with the cold is still an ongoing struggle for me. When the temperatures really drop it does affect me a great deal. Thank you all for your prayers, compassion, and encouragement. I love you all.
In the Arms of Jesus,
Pastor Randy
