From the Pen of the Pastor . . . Take Care of Your Temple!

Dear friend, 



   “I pray that you may enjoy good health and that all may go well with you, even as your soul is getting along well.” 3 John 1:2 NRSV

   In March 2020, the world was shut down due to a virus COVID-19. Now more than a year and a half later we are still dealing with the ramifications of it. I want to encourage you to make sure that you are taking care of yourself. This pandemic has forced us to change our sleeping patterns, our eating patterns and even our social patterns. Remember, God knows the end from the beginning, so He knew this pandemic was coming. He was not shocked nor was He surprised. The important thing is for us to understand that God IS in control, and if we follow His footsteps He will lead us in the right direction.

   Take care of your temple both spiritually and physically. Make sure you stay connected with God through prayer, reading the Bible and spending time with others who also love the Lord. If you make sure that you are spiritually well, it will make it easier for you to be physically well.

   Also, make sure that you're eating properly, sleeping properly, and doing things that you enjoy doing. Sometimes you may have to find new activities due to changes in your life, but don’t get discouraged. Use this as an opportunity to do something different that you enjoy.

Be Encouraged. Walk in Excellence. Speak Life.
