Ecclesiastes 3:1 To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven:
Ecclesiastes 3:2 A time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to pluck up that which is planted

From a sorrowful heart, I need to let you know that as of today, Monday, April 14, 2014, my mother left us and went with the Lord. This is just a quick update, more information will be given out later.

Thank you for your support and prayers.

Angelo has been a dear friend for years…..please keep the family in your prayers. I talked to him by phone yesterday.
I am praying for my message on Sunday and also working on putting it all together, please pray for me……and all Pastor’s. Here is one of my favorite Easter stories…….

There once was a man named George Thomas, pastor in a small New England town. One Easter Sunday morning he came to the Church carrying a rusty, bent old bird cage, and set it by the pulpit. Eyebrows were raised and, as if in response, Pastor Thomas began to speak….

“I was walking through town yesterday when I saw a young boy coming toward me swinging this bird cage. On the bottom of the cage were three little wild birds, shivering with cold and fright. I stopped the lad and asked, “What do you have there, son?”
“Just some old birds,” came the reply.
“What are you going to do with them?” I asked.
“Take ‘em home and have fun with ‘em,” he answered. “I’m gonna tease ‘em and pull out their feathers to make ‘em fight. I’m gonna have a real good time.”
“But you’ll get tired of those birds sooner or later. What will you do then?”
“Oh, I got some cats,” said the little boy. “They like birds. I’ll take ‘em to them.”
The pastor was silent for a moment. “How much do you want for those birds, son?”
“Huh??!!! Why, you don’t want them birds, mister. They’re just plain old field birds. They don’t sing. They ain’t even pretty!”
“How much?” the pastor asked again.
The boy sized up the pastor as if he were crazy and said, “$10?”
The pastor reached in his pocket and took out a ten dollar bill. He placed it in the boy’s hand. In a flash, the boy was gone.
The pastor picked up the cage and gently carried it to the end of the alley where there was a tree and a grassy spot. Setting the cage down, he opened the door, and by softly tapping the bars persuaded the birds out, setting them free.
Well, that explained the empty bird cage on the pulpit, and then the pastor began to tell this story:
One day Satan and Jesus were having a conversation. Satan had just come from the Garden of Eden, and he was gloating and boasting. “Yes, sir, I just caught a world full of people down there. Set me a trap, used bait I knew they couldn’t resist. Got ‘em all!”
“What are you going to do with them?” Jesus asked.
Satan replied, “Oh, I’m gonna have fun! I’m gonna teach them how to marry and divorce each other, how to hate and abuse each other, how to drink and smoke and curse. I’m gonna teach them how to invent guns and bombs and kill each other. I’m really gonna have fun!”
“And what will you do when you are done with them?” Jesus asked.
“Oh, I’ll kill ‘em,” Satan declared proudly.
“How much do you want for them?” Jesus asked.
“Oh, you don’t want those people. They ain’t no good. Why, you’ll take them and they’ll just hate you. They’ll spit on you, curse you and kill you. You don’t want those people!!”
“How much? He asked again.
Satan looked at Jesus and sneered, “All your blood, tears and your life.”
Jesus said, “DONE!” Then He paid the price.

The pastor picked up the cage and walked from the pulpit.
Amen!

He’s Singin’ Our Song!

From Billy Graham……. Please read 1 Cor. 15: 22-28
Who looks forward to turning on the
news these days? All we seem to hear
about are problems. People are losing jobs and
savings. A person can get depressed listening
to it all, and many people are fearful. If you are
facing hardship during these tough times, my
heart goes out to you. Life isn’t always fair or
easy. You may feel you do not know where to
turn. But one of the Bible’s greatest truths is
this: God never abandons us when life becomes
difficult. He is always with us and wants to
help us, even when things seem to be going
wrong. He does not guarantee to reverse every
misfortune, but if Christ lives in our hearts, we
have His promise that nothing “in all creation,
will be able to separate us from the love of God that
is in Christ Jesus our Lord” (Romans 8:39). What
a guarantee! Instead of being fearful about the
future, this Easter we can trust and believe that
God is working a purpose in our lives. We can
have hope!
Despite troubles and bad news, are you able to
rejoice in the Gospel—the Good News of your
salvation in Christ Jesus?
For God’s Glory Alone in the love of our Lord Jesus Christ, Dewey, Sharon, Family and FGGAM Team.
Let us keep praying for each other and our families
