I was delivering a Christmas tree to a widow. Not having heard the statements before the vote, I'm not sure how I would have voted.<br /><br />The thing that I would like to remeind people of is that ELC Cokato is going through some difficult times. The stuggle for how we will respond is going to take some time.<br /><br />The impotaint thing, however, is ELC Cokato. That we remain stedfast in our commitment to raising and teaching our children, to our commitment for carring for our community, both here in town and abroad, and our commitment to each other as a congregation.<br /><br />There will be many more meetings, forums, and votes. There will be differing opinions and viewpoints. but let's approach this as one CONGREGATION, with a single purpose, to take the love that Jesus has poured out on us, and share it with as many people as we can.<br /><br />Tim RobbinsUnknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05211348121829600443noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1344424071192264900.post-59676083775467288932009-12-12T23:10:51.019-06:002009-12-12T23:10:51.019-06:0012In fact, everyone who wants to live a godly life...12In fact, everyone who wants to live a godly life in Christ Jesus will be persecuted, 13while evil men and impostors will go from bad to worse, deceiving and being deceived. 14But as for you, continue in what you have learned and have become convinced of, because you know those from whom you learned it, 15and how from infancy you have known the holy Scriptures, which are able to make you wise for salvation through faith in Christ Jesus. 16All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, 17so that the man of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work. 2 Timothy 3:12-17 <br /><br />This is Gods word for you and me.Waynehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00075308627827022670noreply@blogger.com
