Monday Morning Perspective

Sunday was a great day at Fairview. Great crowd even with many traveling over Thanksgiving. The worship center and lobby was beautiful as our decorators had put their touch of Christmas everywhere. Love seeing the band all on the stage together. And I was one who noticed the lights dimming, but I like it that way! I don't love darkness in our culture, but I like it during worship 😊. 

Great message from James 4! So many thought provoking questions my husband challenged us with. Here are a few of them...

...are you as close to God as you want to be?

...are you living for God in a way that provokes satan and causes him to oppose you?

...repentance involves change. Are we sorry enough over our sin to change?

...how do we respond when others come to us criticizing or complaining about things?

...where are you today? Are you doing things today that 10 years ago you would never have done? 

Love how Eddie wrapped it up by talking about the darkness of our culture. So often we don't even realize how dark it's getting. Darkness is not dispelled by screaming at it. Darkness is dispelled by light. It happens when God's people shine the light. Let's shine the light wherever we go. Christmas is an easy time of the year to do that with numerous opportunities. Happy Monday to all!!
