Church guide

“Run, John, run,” the law commands But gives us neither feet nor hands. Far better news the gospel brings: It bids us fly and gives us wings.“ - John Bunyan

“Be faithful–it’s always too soon to quit.” - Warren Wiersbe

“What fruit will this bear for the Kingdom of God? We never know. It’s the question we should never ask. First, we’ll not get an answer until we get to Heaven. And second, to insist on knowing what God will do with our effort, our gift, our witness, before we act is to remove all faith from it. And without faith, pleasing God is impossible (Hebrews 11:6). You drop your offering into the plate at church. There it goes. Where it will end up, what it will accomplish, God alone knows. Your church has a budget, you know how the money will be added together and which causes it will fund. But your particular gift, you have no way of telling. You’re distributing flyers for your church. Some, you know, will end up in the garbage. Some will never be read. But what if one or two become instruments for the Holy Spirit and someone’s life is forever changed? Wouldn’t that be worth all the effort? You offer up your prayers. You intercede for Gary’s health, for Joel Kent’s healing, for empowerment for Tom and Bonnie, for blessings for James and Lari, and for daily watchcare over various ones. But you do not know what good your prayers do. You have no way of monitoring situations before and after you prayed, to see “what hath God wrought.” “We walk by faith, not by sight.” (2 Corinthians 5:7) You do not know how God uses your prayers for missionaries, for pastors, for the sick, for anyone. Once in a while, you are given a fleeting glimpse. But very rarely. And even then, you have no way of knowing whether this thing happened–someone was healed, saved, got a job, or was protected–as a result of your prayers. And so we labor on. We pray. We give. We serve. We witness. And we leave it with the Lord.” - Joe McKeever
