Be Encouraged, Pastor! - December 07, 2025
“Has not my hand made all these things, and so they came into being?” declares the Lord. “These are the ones I look on with favor: those who are humble and contrite in spirit, and who tremble at my word.”
– Isaiah 66:2 NIV
As we serve the Lord today, look on me with Your favor, Lord! I received it!

Many churches will continue to walk through the advent season.
The second week is the Bethlehem candle, or peace candle.
We somehow always think of peace as being the ‘shalom’ of the Old Testament or the ‘I-ray-nay’ of the New Testament.
But there are two other uses of the word peace in the New Testament.
It is the peace that comes by the commander of God that overcomes the storm, ‘peace be still’.
It is also the command of peace that mandates obedience , ‘hold your peace’.
Let us not short change the peace of Jesus and miss its power and position.
Peace! Tend to but contend for the faith! Let us be busy with the work God has called and established in us!
