Proverbs 3:7 "Do not be wise in your own eyes; fear the LORD and shun evil."

Can you imagine being in another town that you’ve never been to before. You have no idea where to go or what to do. So you do what a lot of people do when they don’t know where they’re going. They pull out their phone or ask someone else to check out what Google maps has to say about where to go.
 
But what if you never got help from Google maps? What if you didn’t trust it’s directions? What if you decided you know more than the map and decide to go your own way. Well, unless you’re really lucky, you’d probably get lost without help and direction.
 
That’s a lot like what this Bible verse is saying. It’s telling us to not think that we’re wise. We shouldn’t think that we can make decisions independently of God. Yet many times that’s what we do. We don’t get God’s help on our decision making. We don’t include God in our lives. We don’t run after Him and turn away from the things that keep us from Him.
 
So challenge yourself today to turn away from things that keep you from God. Turn away from things that are bad and decide instead to run after God. Get His input and direction for your life. Choose to make Him your priority in life.

Thank you again to all who came out this past Saturday and supported the college students.  We had a great time seeing everyone not mention the awesome pancakes that were enjoyed.
 
 
 
Attention all parents with a graduating seniors this year.  Please be sure to send me pictures. I need them ASAP.  Also, if you are graduating college this year please let the church office know or contact me.  Our graduation service will be held May 6th.  We are asking our church family to bring a covered dish that morning.  We will have a church wide luncheon after morning service to honor our grads.  I’m looking forward to this service and I am also very proud of our graduates this year.

Ephesians 2:10 For we are God's handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.

Have you ever thought about the fact that you’ve never actually seen yourself?  Yes, you’ve seen yourself in a mirror but that was just a reflection.   You have to look in the mirror and believe that what you see is the truth.  If your hair is in place in the mirror then you have to trust that.  In the same way, God has a different image of you than you can see on the outside.  His image of you is made up of all the qualities that Jesus exchanged with you when you surrendered your life for His.
 
The Bible calls this transformation as a becoming a new creation. This verse in Ephesians describes that transformation. God calls us new in Christ and tells us that He’s planned good things for us.
 
So regardless of what you’re going through, regardless of who’s put you down, and who’s told you that you’re not qualified, God sees you differently. He sees you through the mirror of Jesus and when He looks at you, He sees greatness.
 
Bro. Brian
 
Thank You!
Our BBQ lunch was a success!  We raised a little over $700.  This money will help us with SOAR 2018 this July.  Thank you again!
