Do Not Set Your Heart on Riches

Though your riches increase, do not set your heart on them. — Psalm 62:10 


Although God often gives us worldly riches, we are not to put our trust in them.

We do not follow the prosperity gospel.

Although God takes care of all our needs, He does not give us everything we want.

Just those things that are best for us.

Jesus did not come to save us from bad things.

Rather, He came to save us from our own sin - from the wrong things we say and do.

Here's the crocodile we saw at the zoo last week.

Until he opened his mouth, he looked like a statue.

God's creation is amazing.

He has done great things.

May Your Love Increase and Overflow

May the Lord make your love increase and overflow for each other and for everyone else, just as ours does for you.  — 1 Thessalonians 3:12


May God help my love to increase.

Where I used to hate, let me love.

May my love overflow for others and for everyone.

Just as Paul's love overflowed for the people in Thessalonica.

Just as the love of Jesus overflows for me.

Here's a picture of our choir pool party in August.

My friend Lorraine hosted us at her home, and it was a beautiful day.

Kirk and Ron threw horseshoes, we swam and enjoyed good food together.

May Your Love Increase

May the Lord make your love increase and overflow for each other and for everyone else. — 1 Thessalonians 3:12


During this time of conflict and divisiveness, God calls to love.

Our prayer is that God will make our love increase.

That he will help our love overflow to others.

Not just to our friends, but also to our enemies.

May God help our love overflow for everyone.
