It Shakes It Quakes - He doesn't

I heard the news of the earthquake in Haiti this morning. As I watched the news I could see the dismay, the ruin, the pain that the people of that nation are experiencing. It surprised me that I had just prepared the message for this Sunday and plan to talk about when life shakes and quakes. The truth is that the unexpected can happen - it does happen. What do we do with the unexpected, the disappointment, the hurt, the attack. We need to be on on solid ground, the solid ground of Jesus Christ. The old song says..."On Christ the Solid Rock I stand, all other ground is sinking sand.."

So that reality of the shakiness of life is out there..and very real to many without church body. In particular are people in need of a physical miracle of healing for their body. Let's get into the tower and refuge of God. Please note the following news for what we want to do as a church.

SPECIAL PRAYER this Sunday Jan 17 at 10:15-10:45am. Between services this Sunday we will ask for anyone to join us in a time of corporate intercession. We will also gladly pray for anyone that desires special prayer with the pastors and elders. Scripture tells us that if anyone is in trouble or sick, they should call for the elders of the church to anoint with oil and pray (James 5:13-16). We intend to do just that...Pray for God's provision, intervention, and healing in the lives of many.

God bless - let us be a praying people to see our God do miraculous things.
