I just want to share something that to me is very special.
In the recent years our brotherhood has had to deal with some severe issues. Our pastors have labored hard to being about repentance among the offenders with no success. This leaves the rest of us sad. Then the hyper-grace doctrine has won some followers and out they go, leaving us with fewer people.
Now, I am praying God would remove those that do not edify and bring in those that could, would or do. In this prayer I am more intense in praying for our church leadership that God would strengthen them, giving them knowledge and wisdom in the work He has called them and may the brotherhood support them; and that they would share what he has been teaching them, that the brotherhood would take to heart what is being taught.
Since this has been my prayer I am finding that during the week as I study the WORD, pray, meditate I am hearing these things affirmed from the pulpit on Sundays by the pastor who preaches. I am amazed. And awed. And humbled and filled with joy. Awesome.
Just thought I would share...can't keep the blessings all to my self!
