A Morning Message
Friday, February 3rd, 2012Good Morning! It is Friday, and with it comes a change in the weather. The clouds have rolled in and the chance of rain is 100%. The good news for those of you that don’t like snow is that it is too warm, if not we would be in for a big one. If you are a runner, the run will be at 9:00 rather than 10:00 in the morning due to the service for Fritz Norfleet. Plan on worship Sunday, always wonderful to be a part of what God is doing. Have a blessed weekend.
PS: Jay made changes to the website and delivery. Please share your comments.
If we claim to have fellowship with him and yet walk in the darkness, we lie and do not live out the truth 1 John 1:6
This sounds a lot like James don’t you think? Well it should, the message of Christ is the message of Christ. This is a verse packed with stuff. I won’t try to dig into all of it this morning, but think of it on a very basic level. Can we believe in God, yet deny we have any need for a Savior? Can we ever walk in the light if we deny that only Christ can remover the darkness from our lives and yes we all have some darkness. It is about recognizing our condition. The Good News is in recognizing our need and allowing Him to Jesus meets our needs. Just a thought for today.

Hi, I'm Doug Walter, pastor here at Salem UMC. I started these little morning messages as a way for folks to get to know my family, including my puppy, MO. It also gives people a feel for what their pastor is up to, and to be able to see I am a real person. I wanted to give you all a little daily scripture and a thought. There's even a little Bible question for ya!
