Over the past few weeks, I have talked to more than a few folk who are genuinely fearful about the future. I opened up the paper this morning and on page 2....what was the headline?....
"Study show middle-class fearful about economy".
Fear is a real thing, folks. When it seizes you, it can do some real damage.
This Sunday, we are starting a new series at Harvest called "Real Fear: Real Peace". I believe this is a very timely series, one that people need to hear. So invite anyone you know that needs to hear this subject, anyone who needs to be encouraged!!
Remember: Harvest is a SAFE place to hear a DANGEROUS message.....one that can change your life!
I appreciate your prayers for me as I prepare for the 1st message this coming Sunday. I really feel the Lord is going to meet us in a special way and hearts will be lifted up and encouraged.
Also, Pastor Craig will be teaching on "Jesus The Healer" Sunday night. Our intercessors have been praying for God to do miracles Sunday night, as faith connects with the Word of God.
Love you guys....and see you Sunday....!

Thank you Bobby...MY BROTHER IN CHRIST!!
I decided to look into fear tonight and this jumped out!
Job 4 (Amplified Bible)
12Now a thing was secretly brought to me, and my ear received a whisper of it.
13In thoughts from the visions of the night, when deep sleep falls on men,
14Fear came upon me and trembling, which made all my bones shake.
15Then a spirit passed before my face; the hair of my flesh stood up!
16[The spirit] stood still, but I could not discern the appearance of it. A form was before my eyes; there was silence, and then I heard a voice, saying,
17Can mortal man be just before God, or be more right than He is? Can a man be pure before his Maker, or be more cleansed than He is?(A)
18Even in His [heavenly] servants He puts no trust or confidence, and His angels He charges with folly and error--
19How much more those who dwell in houses (bodies) of clay, whose foundations are in the dust, who are crushed like the moth.
20Between morning and evening they are destroyed; without anyone noticing it they perish forever.
