Sunday Update

We had a great day at church yesterday.  It was cold and rainy, but the church was warm and friendly.  We were missing several people yesterday morning due to travels and sickness, but we still had 13 in attendance.  What a blessing.  I preached from Matthew 14, where the disciples found themselves in the midst of one of the greatest storms they ever faced.  Do you realize, it's possible to obey the Lord, to be right where the Lord instructs you to be, and yet still face storms.  Hard times come to each and everyone of us.  Storms are simply a part of life.  However, it's encouraging to know, when you're facing those storms, the Lord knows exactly where you are. He came walking to those disciples in the midst of their storm.  Jesus came walking on the sea.  No matter what you're facing today, no matter how big it seems to be to you, it's not too big for the Lord. He's got it all under control.  What an encouraging thought.  Hope you had a great day in the Lord's house yesterday.  I thank God for what He's doing here at Canaan Baptist Church in Covington, LA.
