We Must Be Strong (Red Coat Series, Part 4)

What does it take to earn the Red Coat?

The same thing it takes to follow Christ, give it your all!


Reciting the Gettysburg Address at
Bethany Village Nursing Home
during a Mother's Day Luncheon

It takes Courage! 

I developed courage as I learned new skills in L2L in my 7 years of participating.  

Courage is sometimes feeling fear and doing the thing anyway. 

 In a little while, it becomes easier!   

At first, I did not enjoy speaking in public.  

Now I love it!  Practice makes perfect.  

Although I rarely do it perfectly.  

This was the first time I led the 
Communion Service


It takes Strength

What else does it take to earn the Red Coat?

A tremendous amount of Strength. God will give you the strength, so don't worry.



Giving it your all

What does it take to follow Christ, to give him our "ALL?"

It takes courage, and it takes daily strength.

The word of God says that we will be transformed when we meditate on the words in the Bible

as often as we can!

Convention 2021

What is the benefit of this?

More joy.

More adventure.

More purpose.

More is something we all want. 


Giving to Get

What if the only way to find more is to give Jesus all that you have?

You can discover the Treasure worth everything. 

Jesus has everything you need.

Matthew 6:21 says, “For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.” 

How about you, do you know Jesus?

The Anchor Holds


"My Hope is Built on Nothing less
Than Jesus' Love and Righteousness!

In every high and stormy gale: 
My anchor holds within the vale..."

This picture was taken of me when I was 5 years old...
It had flooded our front yard when we lived in Arkansas.
Instead of a disaster, my clever Mom thought of an adventure...
and so I floated all around my front yard that morning!


 
 

God does not promise that there will be no Storms,
 no discouragement,

BUT He did promise that when these times come, 

He will give us an Anchor…
 
 
 
"On Christ the Solid Rock I stand, All other ground
 
is
 
Sinking Sand,
 
 
All other ground is sinking sand.
