Single and Loving It

Hello everyone. The warm weather we have been having is slowly melting the snow. It gives me hope that spring isn't too far away.

This coming Saturday and Sunday, I will be ministering at New Hope Assembly of God in Dayton, Pennsylvania. On Saturday, I will be sharing at a single's seminar at the church. On Sunday, I will minister to the entire congregation in both the morning and evening. Please pray that the concepts I share about being single will encourage others to see that being single is a wonderful gift from God. Also, pray that the preached Word will challenge and change those who hear.

Nehemiah was an interesting man. As cupbearer to King Artaxerxes, he had what I would consider a somewhat cushy job, after all, he worked in the king's palace. But he swapped that job to go to Jerusalem to lead the difficult task of rebuilding the walls of that city despite the attacks of those who did not want to see that happen. Nehemiah's character and leadership were exactly what the people needed to complete this great task. I'd like to be a modern day Nehemiah...a person who builds the kingdom of God despite the attacks of the enemy of our souls. Join me and let us work side by side to complete this great commission.

God's blessings to each of you.

White Valentine's Day

You've heard of "White Christmas". We had "White Valentine's Day." Everything is white around here.

This coming Sunday through Tuesday, I will be ministering at New Life Assembly of God in Carbondale, Pennsylvania. Please pray that these meetings will bless all who attend. On Sunday night, I will be speaking at a Joy Fellowship at the church for the women.

David is one of my favorite Bible characters. In a way, I appreciate that the Bible not only includes the fact that he was a man after God's own heart, but it also lists his flaws. I can relate to that. I want to please God but there are still things that the Lord has to work on in my life. The lessons we learn from the Bible characters also let us realize that despite our imperfections, the Lord still wishes to use us to accomplish His business on earth. I'll say AMEN to that.

Have a good day in Jesus.

Around The Area

Good morning everyone. Sunny...chilly....windy...all words to describe the say outside my window.

This coming Sunday, I will be ministering at the Pentecostal Assembly of God in Hamlin, Pennsylvania in the morning and at my home church, the Green Ridge Assembly of God in the evening. It's been close to 10 years since I ministered in the Hamlin Assembly. Please pray that the words I preach will reach right to the heart of those who will be in attendance. The Word of God is energizing.

I just finished reading through the Book of Romans today. That last chapter is encouraging. Paul lists his greetings to fellow workers in the kingdom of God, men and women alike. Each of you has a place in the body of Christ. God wishes to use your own unique abilities for His work.

Have a great day with Jesus.

Harrisburg, Pennsylvania

Good morning everyone. It's a quiet winter morning in northeastern Pennsylvania.

This coming Saturday and Sunday, I will be ministering at Capital City Church in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania. Their Pastor, Bob Mlynek, came out of the River of God Church in Enola, Pennsylvania. In fact, River of God is helping to mentor this home missions church along. Please pray that I will have a safe trip and that these meetings will bless this congregation.

I'm reading through Genesis right now. Deception, worldliness, drunkenness, sexual sin, it's all in there. Human nature hasn't changed too much in several thousand years. I'm thankful for the God of grace who offers people the ability to change when we open our hearts to Him. Grace and mercy....what a wonderful combination given to us through Jesus.

Have a great day with the Lord.
