Son Light.

Yesterday's guest speaker was Lowell Hawthorne, D. Litt., CEO of Golden Krust Caribbean Bakery and Grill. His message inspired us to remember God's faithfulness: we serve a God who always brings His word to pass, and we can trust Him completely.

Dr. Hawthorne made a statement during his message that we will be reflecting on over the next few days. While encouraging the congregation, he said:

"We have the pastor, the fellowship, and God as our Captain."

For today, I encourage us to contemplate this statement. And for some of us, this may be a new way of thinking about the supports God has provided to help His people. Could it be that some of our struggles are occurring because, though we love God, we do not love the pastor He has set over us nor the people He has placed us with?

Although an assailant may overpower one person, two can withstand him. Moreover, a three-stranded cord is not quickly broken. (Ecclesiastes 4:12)
