Family, we need to stop, lift up our eyes, and look. If we don’t, we miss seeing beautiful blessings from God. There’s a ton of congregations who are praying for the blessings we have right now! Read that again. THERE’S A TON OF CONGREGATIONS WHO ARE PRAYING FOR THE BLESSINGS WE HAVE RIGHT NOW AT CHOCTAW. I hope we see what is taking place in Choctaw and give God thanks for it.
