Children’s children are a crown to the aged, …” Proverbs 17:6 If you are blessed to be a grandparent, congratulations, and Happy Grandparent’s Day! Being a grandparent is an awesome and delightful experience. It is a privilege that some will never enjoy. It is life changing; and it is a blessing that is indescribable! Most grandparents that I know will do almost anything, within reason, for their precious little ones.  It doesn’t stop when these little ones grow up either. Grandparents may purchase that first car for them, support them in all kinds of activities, or help them open their first bank account.  Grandparents seem to always understand and have an ear to listen. Grandparents proudly tell about their grandchildren’s accomplishments throughout life. Their successes in school and work, their…

Good news!! God keeps His promises!! His word is true, trustworthy and unchangeable! You can depend on it to be right all the time.  Speaking of Abraham’s faith Paul says this, “Yet he did not waver through unbelief regarding the promise of God,  but was strengthened in his faith and gave glory to God, being fully persuaded that God had power to do what He had promised.” Romans4:20-21.  You see God had promised Abraham that he would be the father of many descendants. This might not seem like a big thing to some, but it was a very big thing for Abraham and his wife Sarah. God had made this promise to Abraham while he and Sarah were still young and in the childbearing years, but as time went on,…

“Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice!” Philippians 4:4 What makes you happy? What brings joy to your life? There are many different answers to these questions. Some may say a satisfying and successful career, others my name things like family, friends, good health or a comfortable living. All of these answers are true and there is no reason one would not strive to attain them all. But even if a person does not possess any of the above mentioned  blessings, he or she can still be happy. True happiness comes from knowing the Lord. Walking daily with the Him, communing through prayer and reading and applying His word to our lives brings  joy, peace and contentment.  Joy is part of the fruit of the Spirit…

Words of peace, encouragement and assurance are the good news from East Point C.P. Church today.  There are many disturbing and even frightening things happening in the world  but God gives His children hope and help to deal with this life.  Proverbs 18:10 reminds us that we can call on the name of the Lord and find safety; “The name of the Lord is a strong tower; the righteous run to it and are safe.” Chapters 3, 4 and 5 of Psalms all talk about God’s care and protection.   Zephaniah 3:17 assures us of God’s peace when it says “he will quiet you with His love.”  Assurance that God will help us fight when we must is found in Ephesians 6:10-18. Paul says to “put on the full armor of…

Have you noticed that everybody is the world is different? Of course you have, it is a silly question. There are male and female, young and old, short and tall, thin and not so thin. There are also people of different races and ethnic backgrounds, different cultures and languages. We have different personalities, talents and abilities; and may have different opinions and that’s ok. God has made each person uniquely different and special. Psalm 139:14 praises Him for this very special blessing when it reads, “… I am fearfully and wonderfully made”.  Even though we are each created differently, it is wonderful to know that God loves us all the same and sent Jesus to be the Savior for all people. We are reminded of this in  John 3:16, 1…

“Blessed beyond measure” , this is a phrase we hear often. It is a reference to Ephesians. 3:20, where Paul writes, “Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us” . Have you ever considered all the goodness that God bestows on each of us?  It is easy to see the blessings of health, life, family and friends. We know that God guides us, protects us and keeps us safe from harm. We ask for these blessings daily and we are truly grateful for them.  But what about the blessings that we don’t really recognize. According to the above verse of scripture, God is able to do more than we can ask and even…

Good News from East Point C.P. Church August 1, 2021 Here we are at the beginning of a new month. The year is over half gone and new activities are beginning to take up space in our lives and minds. Things like a new school year, football games and other fall activities. Maybe you are beginning a new job after being off because of the pandemic, maybe you are starting anew in a different city or maybe you have lost family or friends and are beginning to build a new life without them. Life is full of changes and new beginnings.  Some are happy and some are sad, but one thing we can be sure of is that God’s love for us will never change or leave us. God loves…

In His Praise! Good News from East Point C.P. Church July 25, 2021 DO YOU KNOW THE LORD? This is a simple inquiry, but the answer means everything. It is the most important answer that you can ever give. It effects the rest of your life here on earth and more importantly, it effects your eternal life. I do not know of anybody that would deliberately choose to go to hell. But by ignoring this invitation you are choosing death over life, hell over heaven . It just that  simple!  And it is just that simple to change things too! Acts 3:19 says to repent and turn to God, so that your sins may be wiped away (paraphrased). Romans 10:9 says “if you confess with your mouth, Jesus is Lord,…

“This is the day the Lord has made; let us rejoice and be glad in it.” Psalms 119:24 These words can be a comfort to those going through troubled times, a reassurance to those that have lost hope and a praise to all of us as we awaken to a new day and a new beginning. Let us always rejoice in each new start we are given and go forward with the confidence that God is with us and has everything under control.

Welcome to “In His Praise!” “…God is love…”, 1 John 4:8 and 16.  What beautiful and true words! Most of us have either spoken them or heard them sometime in our life, but do we really comprehend what these three simple words mean and how great our God’s love is for each of us? We can turn to scripture to begin to scratch the surface of understanding. First of all, we find in John 3:16 and Romans 5:8 that God’s love for us will save us from sin and eternal damnation. Because He loved us enough to send Jesus to die for our sins, we can be forgiven and enjoy eternity with Him. His saving love is a gift that none of us deserve or can earn. That’s not all,…
