Sometimes we find ourselves facing a tough situation and we may feel anxious, unprepared, or worried. We may experience these emotions if, for example, we become involved in a difficult legal situation. Activities within the judicial/legal system may be very complex, time-consuming, and expensive.
Sometimes in life we are faced with difficulties and circumstances in which we feel uncertain, discouraged, afraid, or not in control. During these times, we may become withdrawn, resentful, or even overcome with a sense of hopelessness. Our faith may be tested and we may ultimately become apathetic. Challenging times such as these can have far-reaching impacts on both our personal and professional lives.
Sometimes in life we experience events we never might have expected. During these times, we may feel scared, angry, or disillusioned, even unprepared to handle such situations. Such may be the case when we find ourselves facing a legal trail. Fortunately, we do not have to rely on our own strength to get us through such difficult times.
As the Summer months draw to a close, and we move toward the Fall season, I wanted to take a moment to write this letter to each and every family in the church.
It is exciting to be part of what God is doing here at First Christian Church, and I am certainly looking forward to even greater things in the months and years ahead.
As the world prepares to enjoy the birth of our savior joyously, we cannot help realize this is your first Christmas after the untimely death of your wife. We all know this is a very difficult time for you. We pray diligently to the Lord who sustained you in the past year to help you during this time of reflection. We know how you and your wife used to enjoy this wonderful time of the year with numerous festive celebrations and charity acts.
