Pastor’s Thoughts

Today is Monday December 22nd, just three days before Christmas day. All our Christmas Worship services for 2014 have passed and as a Pastor I am already thinking about how I am going to present the Glorious Message of Jesus for the last time in 2014. There are so many good people who have missed another year of opportunities to enter God’s Kingdom. I can’t help but wonder, was there more that I could have done to persuade or influence others to invite Jesus into their hearts?

Children often make their Christmas list and spend days wondering if their wishes will be granted and if they will find everything they wanted under the tree Christmas morning. I’m not much on wishing or for that matter wanting things, but I find myself praying more and more for those who are neglecting the opportunity to be saved by and through the grace of God. Dear reader if you’re not enjoying the blessing of a real relationship with Jesus why not? Another year has passed, what are you waiting for?

Now that 2014 is history, I want to encourage you my church family to be more diligent in 2015 in your efforts to invite others to come to church services, remind as many as you can of our Savior’s love, and do all you can to make Christ known to a world in need of His salvation. As individuals we can make a difference and together we can make Disciples of Christ. I’m looking forward to what God has for the Fayetteville First Church of God in the upcoming year.
