Weekly Bulletin Message - 2/12/12

Well we had another great day Sunday. Brandon Crunkleton spoke on “Biblical Assurance” from 1st John Chapter 5. He also did a really good one Wednesday night from Jeremiah 5 on “Your Responsibility to God”. I think God used Brandon to speak to me. Brandon is so right when he said that God even knows our thoughts. He challenged us to look at ourselves and see, or rather make sure that we are in God’s will. We should humble ourselves before God and before men. There is so much work to be done for His kingdom and we are the ones to do the work. Who else would do it? God has given us the power and the knowledge to do whatever He wants us to do. So let’s keep up the good work and add even more.

If you are not in Sunday School, you cannot imagine what you are missing. The young People including the young adults are meeting in the trailers and the seniors meet in the fellowship hall. We have wonderful leaders. Our leaders place so much time and effort into making sure that our youth and adults enjoy being at New Bethel and learning The Word.

What a blessing it is to serve with so many good people in this church. I love this place more and more every day. No matter what I ask of anyone here, they always do their best without complaining. As each of you can tell, we are using lots of different people in lots of different areas, whether to pray, to lead the congregation, take up the offering, work on a bad electric cord, turn on the heat, turn off the heat, etc. If you have a desire to do something special here, please tell me, Brenda, or one of the deacons know and we will try to make it happen. We need and want all of you to enjoy worshiping our Wonderful Savior as we do. Our goal is to make this a place that people want to be and a place that we can lead others to Christ. Again as Brandon said last week, “We must walk the walk and talk the talk because we may be the only pulpit that some might see”.
