Touching Lives for Eternity with God

Just a  Friendly Reminder

We learned this morning that Sarasota Memorial hospital has 86 cases of COVID.  Just a reminder that we need to take care of our own personal health habits. We have relaxed our attitude regarding Covid Social Protocol. It's time to rethink that.

Many of you are in the same boat that I am in and do not want to carry Covid home to a loved one, let alone considering our own personal health.

Pray, Trust in the Lord, and use Common Sense.

The CDC still recommends social distancing, hand washing and Masks in at-risk areas.

Blessings and regards
Pastor Bob

Psalm 92:12-14

Aging in the Grace of God

How to embrace the last third of your life as time grows nearer to God and fulfills his purposes.

Many adults feel left behind or out of control in their later years, exhausted from years of holding tightly to deep wounds and fast paced living. In addition, these adults still face new challenges like health problems, changing family situations, or death of peers and loved ones. Seniors confront mortality in a way that younger generations need not. Is aging just a bunch of bad news? Absolutely not!

This ten-session Bible study course will encourage you to share your unique story and answered prayers with others. It will also show you how to use this time to grow closer to God by practicing deepening quiet and contemplation, readying yourself for the new and unexpected vision he may impart. It reminds you that keeping eternity in view helps us to accept tough transitions with serenity. Remember, this is not a time to merely exist, but a time to grow and bloom, aging in grace. God is with you every step of the way.

Help, I'm Growing Old

Psalm 71; Romans 8:28-29, 35-39

This study will encourage us to attack aging head on. In a culture that considers aging a curse and denies it at every opportunity, Christians are encouraged to accept aging as a vital and positive stage of our spiritual journey, a time in which God continues to fit us for his kingdom and develops within us the character of his Son. This is not a time to merely exist, but a time to grow and bloom, aging in GRACE!
