November Community Church Ministry Newsletter
What is it about the beginning of November that puts us in a rush? We look forward to Thanksgiving, but in the back of our minds, we are already thinking about the Christmas season. (Maybe it’s because we are already seeing Black Friday commercials!)
Too easily we hit the ground running, without a plan. If we make plans, we tend to forget to ask the Lord for wisdom and guidance.
James warns us:
“Come now, you who say, “Today or tomorrow we will go to such and such a city, and spend a year there and engage in business and make a profit.” Yet you do not know what your life will be like tomorrow. You are just a vapor that appears for a little while and then vanishes away. Instead, you ought to say, “If the Lord wills, we will live and also do this or that.”
James 4:13-15
Solomon reminds us:
“The mind of man plans his way, But the Lord directs his steps.”
Proverbs 16:9
So, before we leave the starting blocks, let’s remember and follow the advice from Solomon:
“Trust in the Lord with all your heart And do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge Him, And He will make your paths straight.”
Proverbs 3:5-6
And:
“Commit your works to the Lord And your plans will be established.”
Proverbs 16:3
