I apologize for my absence from the blog as of late. I have been especially busy with the duties associated with pastoring. God has blessed me with a great church and it is an honor to serve His people. I have had obligations that were more pressing that taking the time to post here, but I did want to take a moment to stop by today and let everyone know that I hadn't abandoned the blog.
So, things have been going well at Fellowship. Sunday was a great day for us. We enjoyed a precious manifestation of the Lord's Spirit, especially in the evening service. I know that we aren't saved by feelings and we don't serve the Lord according to our feelings, but it is great to sense His presence in the midst from time to time.
We began studying the book of 1 Thessalonians back in August and Lord willing we will finish that study this evening. That has been a great encouragement, as well as a great challenge. The church in Thessalonica wasn't perfect, but she certainly set a tremendous example for the modern church to follow. I pray that we will all be drawn closer to the Lord and seek to serve Him with a renewed passion and commitment.
If all goes as planned, I hope to begin a study in the Old Testament book of Nehemiah next week for our Wednesday evening Bible study. I am in the beginning stages of preparation for Nehemiah and am excited about it. I truly believe that it will be a help to us as well. All of God's Word is good and beneficial if we will only take the time to study it.
Well I hope you have a blessed day in the Lord and are making plans to attend His house this evening. I can't wait to get there and spend some time in His Word. I hope to be back somewhat sooner than I have in the past. Until then, keep serving the Lord and looking for His coming!
