Victorious News - December

Matt. 18:27 “Then the lord of that servant was moved with compassion, and loosed him, and forgave him the debt.”  

President Herbert Hoover was largely raised by his uncle, who taught him many things but was an austere man without much affection. For years, Hoover resented him. But when the President heard his uncle was dying, he had a sudden change of heart. His biographer wrote, “The bitterness he felt at having been a chore laden outsider in his uncle’s home, the resentment he had nursed over the great taskmaster’s discipline, simply melted away”. Hoover sent a warm message to his uncle and later issued a statement to the press, saying that his uncle had, in fact, been “my second father”. He afterward looked at appreciation.  

We often experience hurt feelings and resentments. But when God gives us a dose of compassion, it’s remarkable how quickly the resentment can melt away. People who have carried grudges for years often find them disappearing in light of a tragedy or sadness or moment of human need.  Jesus taught us to have compassion on each other because of God’s compassion on us. He is gentle toward all He has made.  

Are you holding a grudge? Try looking at that person with the compassion Jesus has shown to you.  

 We had a baby dedication the first Sunday of the month and what a wonderful act to dedicate to God what He has given to us. 

After 2-3 years the choir has started up again, they   sounded good when they sang on a Sunday night.  What a wonderful service, the night before Thanksgiving.  A service of worship and praise. Also, a communion service was held.  

We also had a member of the church go on a mission trip to Uganda, where many came to the Lord.  

The church is now decorated for Christmas.  

From the USA

 Sis. Haas writes that their new counselor prayed with an inmate very concerned about her nephew’s brain cancer. After prayer and a checkup from the doctor, the boy was found to be cancer-free.  PRAISE GOD!!!!

HOW DO YOU THINK YOU WOULD HAVE REACTED TO THE NEWS THE ANGEL PROCLAIMED? WHY DO YOU THINK GOD CHOSE TO REVEAL HIS SON’S BIRTH TO THEM?  

DEAR JESUS, YOUR BIRTH WAS REVEALED TO THE SHEPHERDS, FOR YOU DON’T’ DESPISE ANYONE, AND YOU CAME TO EARTH TO LOVE AND SAVE ME.
