I know many Christians who are staunch Republicans, and today, they have emotions of
sadness. And I know a couple of Christians who are Democrats, and today they are happy. And then I know quite a few who really don’t care either way because at the end of the day, the government is really not for us, the people, anyway. They may have emotions of disdain or anger. I just want to remind all my Christian friends, God IS in control and He
WILL work all things for our good (Romans 8:28). It is going to be OK, may be messy, but it is going to be OK. God’s plan will play out.
These emotions, of themselves, are not a sin. Even anger is not a sin unless you act upon it sinfully. Eph. 4:26 says, “Be angry and do not sin”. So you CAN be angry and not sin. Emotions trip us up more often than not, however, because of our reaction to them. The devil is always there, and when you get up into your emotions, he is right there whispering…tempting you to focus on that feeling and take matters into your own hands.
Even a good emotion like happiness, if it turns the focus back on us, can trip us up and ruin our walk. This Sunday, we are going to talk about happiness, about joy, about how to stay grounded and how to grow past the fleeting emotions to the character qualities
that will follow you into eternity. Going to be a great lesson.
And it is our FELLOWSHIP SUNDAY. We will be having turkey and ham and all the
fixings afterwards-food, fellowship, and family. Get your first Thanksgiving Day meal
this Sunday- it’s free! And get to know some of the sweetest people you will ever meet.
Our church is small, but sweet and beautiful. We would love to have you over for a meal
and fellowship. So come this Sunday at 10:30 at 900 Cripple Creek Dr. in Lawrenceville and get fed the Word of God, and stay after and get fed some delicious food and enjoy sweet fellowship. Hope to see you there-10:30 on Sunday!
Pastor Brian
