Travelin: Jimmie Lewis, Peggy Lewis, Nikita Chambers and Jerrell Chambers took a mini vacation to the Gulf Shores, Alabama. While there they were able to eat at the famous Lambert’s Café famous for throwed rolls. The wait was an hour and a half but it was worth it.
On July 15, 2018 Rev. Marcus McDougle brought the morning message. Scripture 2 Corinthians 6-12 with the subject Do what you can and let God handle the rest.
Food For Thought: All of us are subject to one law of science, the law of gravity the force that pulls every object to the center of the earth. In a similar way, members of the I Can’t club are prisoners to the downward pull of defeat. That makes us not only ground bound, but sin-bound. At times we feel bound to certain sins.
Think about the law of gravity again. It’s hard to imagine a 190-ton mass of metal rising against gravity’s pull? Impossible. What do you think? When we in faith, give ourselves over to the Spirit’s control, the I can’t statement will no longer bind us. When God fills our spirit with his spirit and infuses us with his strength, we are no longer captive to any temptation. Every can’t becomes a can.
