I love Christmas; as a child, my sister and I would look through the Sears Christmas catalog and make our wish list. We were relatively poor, but we always received Santa gifts.🎉 At the church Christmas drama, our mother directed and our father made the Christmas star. He made the star travel, leading the wise men. (I think I was one of the wise men or a shepherd.) My sister was an angel. I have precious Christmas memories.😇 Come and make some Christmas memories at Lake Blackshear Baptist Church on this Sunday night 6 PM as we rejoice in Jesus coming into our world and into our lives.✝️AMEN!

300 persons attended the service yesterday for one our deacons.🎉 They were there to support the family and show their love and respect for him. Thank you! Let’s look around and see if there is anyone we can reach out to now.🙏 Call them, visit them, pray for them.🙏 I’m on my way to coffee and prayer time and then to the County Commission Meeting to open with prayer.🙏 Thank You, Lord, for coming into our world and into our lives, AMEN!

Vas ist los? That’s German for “What’s going on”.😇 There’s a lot going on, much of it bad. Read our Sunday School lesson from Isaiah chapters 8 and 9 about the Prince of Peace, Jesus Christ. Jesus will return, and for the first time since the Garden of Eden, (that’s where the conflict started) there will be peace. Peace on Earth will come, amen!

The phone rang, and I heard the words you don’t want to hear,☹️ “He’s gone”.✝️ A longtime friend, deacon, and servant of the Lord was now in the very presence of the Lord!✝️ If you go on a trip, especially overseas, we make careful plans for our journey.🙏He had prepared for this journey years ago as a youth.✝️ Now is the moment to prepare for our journey, to ask Jesus into our hearts and lives, amen?

Awesome night at the Cordele Christmas Parade-🎉having fun and telling the world that Jesus has come!✝️ His second coming will be awesome, and the entire world will be effected, as the dead in Christ are raised and untold numbers are raptured away.🙏Joy to the World, AMEN!

Want to read a story of someone trusting God in the worst circumstances? Matthew 1:18-25: Joseph learns Mary is expecting; he knows he’s not the father.☹️God sends an angel who tells him God’s plan for this Baby.✝️He basically says to trust God. There will be hard times, sickness, sadness, but trust God. He’s got a plan.✝️Ready for Christmas? Amen.

Sometimes I think I have a problem, and then my phone rings and there’s someone with a REAL issue.☹️Father, I lift up those who are struggling with REAL issues; I ask for healing, guidance and deliverance, in Jesus’ Name. If you pray that with me, say “Amen”.

Advent begins today-✝️Jesus, coming into our world and most importantly into our lives.✝️ Oh, the signs are everywhere; we have our “tree” up.🎉 We have the greening of our Church today.⛪️ A song that I love (one of our ladies is singing it today) is “Mary, did you know?” “ Mary , did you know that your Baby Boy, would be the Great I Am?” John 14:6 has the ultimate verse, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me". ✝️ Oh, Mary did you know? Do you know? Amen?

It’s all over Facebook, and I think it’s a good idea, plan.🎉Starting today, read a chapter of the Gospel of Luke.✝️24 chapters, it will take us through Christmas Eve, the Life and Story of Jesus.🎉We celebrate and thank Him for coming into our world and most importantly coming into our lives.✝️Thank You, Lord, for saving a wretch like me, amen?

The family is here; we are on the way to Blackshear Villas for a worship service.🎉 We’ll take some song sheets so they can sing with us.😇It’s church;🎉we do everything but receive an offering.😇They can’t go to worship, so we take it to them.✝️Jesus said go into all the world, this is part of it,🙏besides, it’s fun.🎉Amen.

I have trouble remembering names. I bump into people all the time; I know them, but can’t call their names.🤔I haven’t forgot when it’s time to eat.😇 I have several passages of scripture engraved in my memory bank.✝️ My favorite is John 14:1-6. In the last verse, Jesus says “I am The Way, the Truth, the Life, and no one comes to the Father, but by Me”! Amen?

Our Sunday School lesson is about David thanking God for rescuing him.✝️ It got me thinking about how He had rescued me from the pit of sin and egotism. Has God rescued you? Let’s do what David did; let’s sing His praises. “Thank You, Lord for saving my soul, thank You for making me whole”.🎉Amen?
#comehomeatlbbc

Brrr, we had frost this morning.🎉We have the Lord’s Supper tomorrow.✝️Oh, what a Mighty God, we serve.✝️ What’s the connection? Both were created by God for His purpose.🎉God uses everything;😇He wants to use us too. Father, take us, mold us, use us:🎉Amen!

Headed for the nursing homes, they put up with my preaching, my singing and my jokes.😅As the moments of my life roll by (so quickly), I realize how blessed we are.✝️ God has made a way for me, even when I was far away from Him.🎉 I won’t bore you with details,🤨but if He can save me, then no one is beyond His reach.✝️ Do you know someone who needs God in their life? Pray and reach out to them, amen?

At a funeral service, I listened to a son give an awesome testimony about his late father.✝️ We laughed, and we wept.✝️ You can watch it on our website: lakeblackshearbaptistchurch.com.🙏 What will they say about us? I hope it’ll be what this son said “He’s with Jesus”. Amen?
