Grace for Grown Ups

We continued our Wednesdays in the Word Revival series last night. Dr. Maurice Watson of the Beulahland Bible Church in Macon & Warner Robbins, Georgia, was our guest speaker. And Maurice Watson did what Maurice Watson does. He preached up a storm. The message was from 2 Corinthians 12:6-9, where Paul talks about his thorn in the flesh. He entitled it “The Painful Side of Grace.” It was very timely message. There are members of MSMBC who are struggling with various challenges, delays, and trials in their lives. I know those who heard that message last night left with their faith strengthened and the vision of God enlarged.

We had really good attendance last night, even though it was Valentines Day. I was hoping and praying that “Cupid” wouldn’t take precedence over Christ. And I was really proud of our congregation. It was a well-attended service. And I believe that God was glorified and the saints were edified in and through the meeting. We will not be posting the messages on our website. But they are available through our church office. Please remember the continuation of our meeting in your prayers. Dr. Ralph Douglas West of the Brookhollow Baptist Church (“The Church Without Walls”) in Houston will be our guest speaker.
