Good Morning Christians from Pastor Pete

Proverbs 16:21 (NIV)
 

The wise in heart are called discerning, and pleasant words promote instruction.

 

No matter how lofty our intention, our frustration and a heart full of anger and hostility will not lead to understanding. Unfortunately, our own negative emotions can block our best efforts to build an ideal world.  A caring and prayerful heart with respectful speech, showing godly wisdom, will often lead to acceptance of helpful instruction by others.  Lord, when I speak to others, please help me to keep a calm and wise heart that my words may glorify you.  Amen.
 

Our search for God can be a daunting quest.  Finding a church in which to accommodate that search can be intriguing as well as intimidating, scary and overwhelming.  The search, however, is not only worthwhile, it is essential to the growth and development of our soul.

Why  would you want to come to our church? To sing hymns to God Almighty? To offer prayers for those in need and ourselves? To offer thanksgiving for blessings received? The main reason you should come is to feel the presence of God.  In feeling God's loving presence we know the reason we praise and sing hymns.  We know the person who answers prayer and we know the One who blesses our lives.

Come to Bull Shoals UMC and feel the presence.... Come and grow with us.

God bless you.
