PASTOR’S MESSAGE
Great Things
Great things don’t happen bymere accident. Egypt, ancientRome, the nations of Europeand the United States are the
result of many struggles, battlesand the labors of millions ofpeople resembling the great
waves that ride up in the sea.Their greatness is only for a time
in a long path to history.Sometimes people make a lot of
money or get a lot of fame;sometimes they lose what they
have gained rather quickly. KingSolomon wrote about this in theBible, “All is vanity and vanity is
vanity and passes after thewind.” But some things do not
pass away. One, what Jesus didon the cross. Two, our salvation.
Three, eternal life. Four, thosewe love. Five, love, hope andfaith. Six, the joy of being a
Christian. Seven, the good we doin life.
Rev. Roger Plessen
