A great passage in the New Testament can be found in the third chapter of Ephesians.  The Apostle Paul teaches in verses 14-21 about prayer.  We can turn our cares into prayers and be delivered from anxiety.

      Algie and I have had our "ups and downs" in the Media Center. There is so much we want to do. Sickness can be discouraging and it is hard to understand the things that happen sometimes. Then we read about God's wisdom and seek to understand God's plan. We realize His wisdom and plan is so much greater than anything we can think of. He has something greater for all of us.

      Is this passage, we read about God's unlimited resources and strength. Strength he offers through the Holy Spirit and His marvelous love for us. How does God show love to us?

      One way is through His people.  The people of Northside have truly shown the love of God to Algie and me. When we are confused, tired, sick or weak, they were there for us. They took time, energy and patience to demonstrate God's love. Because of the support of God's people, we have hope.

      We love Northside Baptist Church, and with your help and God's help, hope to continue to build a great library for your use.
