I was asked the other day how my church was doing.
The joy is, there are those who are following Jesus and God is working mightily in the lives of our people.
Philippians 4:1
(1) Therefore, my brethren dearly beloved and longed for, my joy and crown, so stand fast in the Lord, my dearly beloved.
1 Thessalonians 2:19-20
(19) For what is our hope, or joy, or crown of rejoicing? Are not even ye in the presence of our Lord Jesus Christ at his coming?
(20) For ye are our glory and joy.
The sorrow is, there are those who are resisting the Lordship of Christ and living in darkness and sin.
2 Corinthians 12:20-21
(20) For I fear, lest, when I come, I shall not find you such as I would, and that I shall be found unto you such as ye would not: lest there be debates, envyings, wraths, strifes, backbitings, whisperings, swellings, tumults:
(21) And lest, when I come again, my God will humble me among you, and that I shall bewail many which have sinned already, and have not repented of the uncleanness and fornication and lasciviousness which they have committed.
The joy is, there are those who are following Jesus and God is working mightily in the lives of our people.
