For the News-Leader
Fear of being excluded will influence us to believe that we have taken a negative route, though we have done what we know to be right. Fear of masses of people will cause us to abandon our offspring.
Fear is detrimental to our ability to make sound choices. Fear clouds our spiritual vision to the point that we miss the very things we aspire to attain. Anything viewed through the eyes of fear will always be a distorted picture.
With God as our heavenly eternal Father, we do not fear even when we are destitute or lost from the very one who God used to bring us into the world. God remains faithful. Therefore, remain faithful to Him.
A human may be able to put us out of a facility, but no one can put us out of the kingdom when we choose to confess Jesus as the Christ. Never allow fear to cause us concern about belonging here on earth when eternity awaits the words that will seal our destiny. What are those life changing words? Jesus, you are the Christ, the Son of God, and you are my Lord.
The families of the late Sis. Christy Riche, Sis. Davis, Bro. David Ferguson and mother, Vicki Davis would like to say thank you to their family and friends for all acts of kindness shown to them during their hours of bereavement. May God continue to bless each of you.
Birthday wishes to Mike Smith, Vincent Johnson, Jr., Bessie Lawyer, Hadleigh White, Merritt Hardy and Minister Darien K. Bolden, Jr.
