God did not give us a spirit that makes us afraid
but a spirit of power
and love
and self-control.
~2 Timothy 1:7 (NCV)~

Rebecca is continuing to do very well. Yesterday, she had the wires removed from around her mouth. This was initially planned for six weeks after the accident, but happened in two and a half weeks. Rebecca’s family is so thankful for the many prayers on her behalf and request you keep praying.
Joan B. Hagan
Joan received a good report in Covington yesterday. Her best news is that she lost sixteen and a half pounds in eight days. Please continue to pray for Joan.

PLEASE DON’T QUIT attending the services of the church when the preacher offends you…
Allow me to be personal. There may be times when you think my approach in a sermon was unwise, my attitude unkind, and my content unworthy. I will try to improve. Please don’t quit, “For God so loved the world.”
Please don’t quit when a brother or sister offends you. We’ve all said things that have hurt others; let’s try to do better. Good people can sometimes be very insensitive and hurtful. Whatever you do, please don’t quit for, “they crucified Him…”
Please don’t quit participating in the work of the church when things don’t go your way. Your wisdom in a particular decision may have been best, but it was not the path taken by the church. Your idea may have been shot down, and that experience can be disheartening. Please don’t quit cooperating in the work of the church, for God will “render to every man according to his deeds.”
If you are one who has already quit the church, citing one of the reasons above or something related, please listen closely. We miss you. Many love you, and it breaks our hearts that you have chosen to leave. Why leave God because of what man may have done to you?
Repent.
Please come back. (Brent Smith)
“But as for you, brethren,
do not grow weary in doing good.”
