September, 2020
It has been quite a few extraordinary months since the last newsletter came out. Covid-19 has been cured, racism and violence have ended, our elected leaders have gotten together and passed many bills to strengthen our country and economy. Our sports teams in Cleveland are the best in the country and people throughout the land have never been happier! … Well, one could hope for all of that, but in reality COVID-19 is still with us, there is still violence and uncertainty in our world, our leaders still bicker about. Our sports teams still struggle and people are still in need of help in one fashion or another. What is the old saying, the more things change, the more things stay the same?
In our recent church services, my messages have and will be relating to, the struggle of the Hebrew people of the Old Testament in the book of Exodus. Most recently we began with that story, as the Hebrew people became enslaved by the Egyptians. They bore decades, centuries, of hardship and toil, crying to the Lord to help them out of bondage. While we have issues of our own thousands of years later, we can hardly imagine the horrors those people felt in slavery and condemnation.
As we pray to the Lord for better days, do not forget, that in the story of Exodus, The Lord heard the cry of anguish and sent forth the great prophet, Moses, to lead the people out of Bondage. I also ask that you not forget the One that God sent us, to save us from death and sin, the one who died upon the cross that we may have salvation and a life everlasting. The Son of God, Jesus Christ, who is head of our church. While we have dark days, know that the Lord is walking with us, shining his light eternal for us, so that better days are upon us. In these coming days, continue to walk with the Lord, pray with Him, and let his Light of love, peace and joy be with you.
God Bless You All,
Pastor Jason Stitt
