Contribution…..$6,846.75 We are living today in a very different world. The

‘coronavirus scare’ has impacted all of us. Nothing like

this has happen in our country since the days of the

1918 influenza panic. I remember my grandmother

(the only grandparent I had still alive when I was born

– my mother’s mother) telling me stories about the

influenza panic of 1918. She was born in 1876 so she

was a mom with both adult children and small children

at home (she had a bunch of kids …large family size

runs in my mother’s family). According to ‘Ma Dial’, the

key to their survival was HOPE for a better day. That HOPE can only

be found in the Lord.

This morning I kick off a study on the life of Joseph and his great

HOPE. This study will continue as an ONLINE STREAMING Bible

class that I will offer each night at 7 on both my personal Facebook

page and the church’s Facebook page. You can view online on either

page.

Grab your Bible and please join me nightly at 7 as we study the life of

Joseph and his unquenchable HOPE for a better day. If you have

questions about how to get online or how to view either of the two

Facebook pages, please see Tim Togami. He’s the guy I always turn

to regarding technology questions.

This 7 pm nightly Bible study class will continue until we resume our

regular Bible study/worship times.

For those wishing to study in the morning time, I’m also hoping to

announce a morning Bible study online streaming class in the very

near future. Please let me know what time you would PREFER, and I

will do what’s best for the majority of the morning crowd.

Please remember …if you need anything (groceries, prescriptions,

other needs) please let us know. We want to serve! Please continue to

check on each other and let us know of any need.

On a different note, I remember a comment made by one of my Bible professors back when I was in school. He said, “Throughout the centuries, the greatest growth spurts for the Lord’s church has always happen during difficult times.” Through our examples of compassion and caring for our community during this difficult time, may we reflect the true spirit of Jesus so many more may come to know His saving power.

MARCH CONTACTS

There is no fear in love; but perfect love casts out fear, because fear involves torment. But he who fears has

not been made perfect in love. 1 John 4:18

70 West Family,

Some additional guidelines for those who desire to attend

services at the building on Sunday mornings:

1. Bring hand sanitizer

2. Leave an open row between you and the occupied row in front

of you, please don’t sit in taped off rows. This is to allow gloved

servers to pass down the rows and to be the only one’s

handling the communion trays.

3. Place used Fruit of the Vine cups in the holders on the pew

backs. They will be collected by a team after services.

4. Use your hand sanitizer before and after communion.

5. Collection plates will be placed at the exit doors for

contribution. Please place your contribution in one of the

baskets as you exit the auditorium.

6. We will have a smaller gathering than normal so come pre-

pared….. admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and

spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord.

Col 3:16 In your strongest voice.

7. Again, if you have a fever or have had one in the last 7 days, a

cough, underlying health issues such as diabetes; heart disease;

Unto to Thee, oh Lord…

Psalm 25:1-3 states, “(A Psalm of David)- Unto

thee, O LORD, do I lift up my soul. O my God, I

trust in thee: let me not be ashamed, let not mine

enemies triumph over me. Yea, let none that wait

on thee be ashamed: let them be ashamed which

transgress without cause.” It is a fact that you

and I have been singing this portion of the 25th Psalm for many

years. It is a great source of encouragement. Let’s take a few

moments to explore this psalm further.

Notice some of the requests of David. In verses 4,5,6,7

and 20 , David pleads with God. He writes: show me, lead me,

remember, remember not, and deliver me. As David makes

these requests, he is showing the reader a contrast between

the king and the Lord. While David is the king of the land, God

is the King of Creation. God holds within His hand the authority

to regulate how mankind lives. David fully understands this

and says correct me to keep me holy in Your sight! What a

beautiful idea. May our prayer ever be: “Correct me to keep

my holy in Your sight!”

We need to understand WHO God will guide- the meek.

So often, we think that the words meek and weak are

interchangeable. They are not! Weak deals with physical

strength while meek deals mental toughness. The word

“meek” literally means “a tamed stallion.” That horse still has

the ability to knock us down and hurt us but the horse allows

the one with the reigns to dictate how he will act. The real

question is: “Who has my reigns?” Matthew 5:6- “Blessed are

the meek…”

Throughout this Psalm, David is consistently asking

God to forgive him and the nation of Israel. Think about his

mindset. Forgive me, first. Forgive us, secondly. David

understands that the changing of a nation begins with him. Not

because he is the king, but rather because he is a child of the

King! Real change to a nation happens when real change

happens in my life, then your life and then to others. If you

want to change the U. S., then change yourself to be more

faithful unto the Lord.

May God give us the courage to live the words we sing!
