Good Morning Trinity,

 

Psalm 91

 

I pray you are doing well and spending your time at home wisely. Take your new found time of staying home and put it to good use. Form some new habits that will pass the time. I can’t watch hockey (I really think the Bolts were going to put it all together this year) and who knows when baseball ( our Rays) will start again. Watching games when you know the outcome somehow loses it’s appeal. So now I definitely have more time to read and it really is a blessing. I’m finishing a great book by Nik Ripkin called “The Insanity of God.” If you’re into missions or even if you want to see what other Christians throughout the world are doing through the persecution they face daily, you need to read it. It will leave you in awe of the incredible power of God.

 

How are you doing with your daily devotions? Are you spending more time with the Lord, or are you rushing through it because that’s what you always did? Gotta be somewhere so I have to get through this devotion. Except there’s nowhere you have to be. Sometimes old habits are hard to break. You could do a scripture reading and devotion twice a day. Once in the morning and again in the evening before bed. Just a suggestion. I’ll promise you this, God will bless you for the time you spend with Him.

 

Read today’s scripture. Pay particular attention to verse 4. “He will cover you with his feathers, and under his wings you will find refuge; his faithfulness will be your shield and rampart.” This doesn’t mean that you pay no attention to the warnings of the day. But what it does mean is that you are secure in Him. Regardless of what happens with this virus or anything else this world throws at you. Your salvation and your eternity are secure in Him. His wing will cover you, protect you and no one can pry you from His grip.

 

It was great seeing many of you at our drive-in service this past Sunday. Even if it was just through the windshield and the best we could do was to give you all a virtual hug. I hope more of you will come out on Easter Sunday to see the service. It’ll be at 9 am which gives you time to get home to watch our expanded service at 10:30 am or at anytime you want to watch it during the day. Just go to Trinity’s Facebook page or our website.

 

Please remember that although this Easter will be different than any Easter we have experienced before. Our Jesus is still risen, He sit’s at the right hand of God the Father and will return again one day for His church. Halleluiah praise God.

 

God Bless You All

Pastor Dave
