Church Family and Friends,

January 20, 2021. If you were a few years old, you probably remember where you were and what you were doing when the terrorist crashed the planes into the World Trade Centers and the Pentagon. If not for the heroes on the 4th plane, they would have hit the Capital, too. During the weeks following that event, we were ready to sign up, go to war, and defend this nation. That was a uniting time in America. We would need to be evaluated and trained before we could engage the enemy. I have preached several sermons about what Isaiah said. (Isaiah 6:8) Also, I heard the voice of the Lord, saying, "Whom shall I send, and who will go for us?" Then said I, "Here am I; send me." Have you ever got excited during a Revival, Youth Conference, or special event and looked up to God and said, "Here am I; send me." I heard this saying a while back, and I don't think it had anything to do with a sermon. "Look in the mirror before you take off running out the door." I guess the thought would be before you go, prepare. That is good thinking. Have you thought about what Isaiah realized before he said, "Send me!" (Isaiah 6:5) Then said I, "Woe is me! for I am undone; because I am a man of unclean lips, and I dwell in the midst of a people of unclean lips: for mine eyes have seen the King, the LORD of hosts." Before Isaiah said, "I will go." he took some time to evaluate his standing with God. He humbled himself and realized he was a sinner. We need to look in the mirror before we look out the window and run through the door. When I take time to look at myself, I realize I am not what I thought I was. When I look at myself in the mirror, I know I need God. Tonight, we will talk about some more misunderstandings about temptation. If you can't attend, we plan to stream live at 6:30 pm. Thank you for praying.

Bro. Tim
