Big Boy's Britches

Our small group is taking a break in meeting together due to the virus, better to be prudent. Here is a note I sent to the group this past Tuesday morning - which is when we usually meet. 



Good morning brothers,

Let's please pray for one another today...doing it everyday wouldn't hurt either.

Let's please ask our Lord Jesus to reveal Himself to us in these uncharted waters.

Let's ask Him to be our center of gravity and equilibrium, and let's remember that He is our destiny and source of life - the world and its agendas can't save us or give us appreciable meaning. 

How can we be a source of peace and hope to others?

How can we prepare to help others who may find themselves in need of housing, food, or financial assistance? 

I think it is important to consider the practical and spiritual possibilities - just in case...we just don't know in these uncharted waters. I think it is perhaps easier to make decisions when we've already prayed about them and discussed them. Vickie and I are preparing ourselves to help others, including opening our home if it comes to that (and we are pretty private people). 

Our Father put us all here for a reason - Christ is the core of that reason and Christ gave Himself for us, therefore we are to give ourselves for others (1 John 3:16 - We know love by this, that He laid down His life for us; and we ought to lay down our lives for the brethren.

Time to put our big boy's britches on!

Much love,

Bob
