On this See You at the Pole Wednesday,
students across the nation gather around a flag pole to pray and ask
God for his blessing in their lives, this nation, and our school
campuses. O. Hallesby writes," Listen my friend! Your helplessness is
your best prayer. It calls from your heart to the heart of God with
greater effect than all your uttered pleas. He hears it from the very
moment that you are seized with helplessness, and He becomes actively
engaged at once in hearing and answering the prayer of your
helplessness. He hears today as He heard the helpless and the wordless prayer of the man sick with palsy."
As a nation we turn to God when tragedy hits. When we have a national
crisis we are all about prayer from the White House down. It is during these times that we get it. There is no other
place to turn to find comfort for the hour, and hope for the future.
Jesus Christ is the answer friends, do you know Him as your Savior? Jesus said, "Peace I leave with you, My peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid."John 14:27
Let's make sure we pray everyday.

Happy 30th to my girl!
Today Renee and I celebrate our 30th Anniversary. What a blessing to be able to travel this journey with such a great wife, mom, and memaw! God knew what I would need when He was shaping me to be a pastor. We have been blessed with a great family and I am honored and humbled to pastor a great church. It is exciting to think of the days ahead. Let us be faithful to the call!
Proverbs 31:10
Who can
find a virtuous wife?
For her
worth is far above rubies.
Vv. 28-30
Her
children rise up and call her blessed;
Her
husband also, and he praises her:
29"Many daughters have done well,
But you
excel them all."
30Charm is deceitful and beauty is
passing,
But a
woman who fears the Lord,
she shall be praised.
Thank you Lord!
