2016…. A New Year with New Challenges and Wonderful opportunities!!………..
As we begin 2016, I have a sense of anticipation. God has wonderful things ahead for our church family. Be encouraged by the words of the Apostle Paul:
“If God be for us, who can be against us.?”
Romans 8:31
Is not that the Gospel Message? The GOOD News??? God is for us!! God loves us!! God will never give up on us!! (Read the whole chapter; Romans 8)
God has a plan for each of our lives and for Emmanuel Church. We need to seek His heart and move into 2016 with fervent Thanksgiving for all He has ahead!! Much love,
But He was pierced for our offenses, He was crushed for our wrongdoings; The punishment for our well-being was laid upon Him, And by His wounds we are healed. All of us, like sheep, have gone astray, Each of us has turned to his own way; But the LORD has caused the wrongdoing of us all To fall on Him. — Isaiah 53:5-6 (NASV)
