The title of Pastor Mark’s message this week was Restoration and Psalm 23:3 was the text he chose. David talked about God as the Good Shepherd. Three kinds of sheep need to be restored: stubborn sheep, straying sheep, and sick sheep. It’s the ministry of the Good Shepherd to restore the sheep. How does he do that? He sometimes has to correct the sheep so they might return to him. God chastises us to pull us in. He comforts in times of suffering. God always restores us if we follow him by loving, and obeying. Be obedient to follow God and not disobey Him and you will find restoration.
Pray this week for Bob Hawkins, Shirley and Jim Bilbruck, Janet and Gary Taylor, Pat Kampe, Kaye Brooks, Chuck Mariott, Keith Slack, and Kay Pogue. Your prayers are appreciated.
Our Annie Armstrong offering collection for North American Missions is almost over. This is your opportunity to be a part of helping spread the gospel throughout North America. To date, we have exceeded our goal. Let’s finish up with an even larger amount. Please pray about what the Lord would have you give; you will be blessed.
