“So teach us to number our days that we may get a heart of wisdom.” Psalm 90:12 (ESV)
“Time, like an ever-rolling stream, Bears all its sons away; They fly forgotten, as a dream Dies at the opening day." (“O God Our Help in Ages Past”) Isaac Watts’ Meditation on Psalm 90
2009, like an ever-rolling stream, will soon have gone away! 2010, the first year of the second decade of the 21st Century, will arrive to great fanfare as a clean slate of high hopes and heart-felt dreams. Through 2009, we lost much and gained much. Hopefully, we learned much and achieved much. Change has been constant; the old has passed away and behold, new things have come.
Our beloved Nation has been financially, morally, and spiritually damaged to a degree unprecedented in our lifetime. Shall we see revival? Or, shall we go the way of all Nations that forget God? God knows. Even if God is not willing to save America, (and I pray that He is) He is willing to save Americans! May He graciously use us to bring many sons and daughters into His Kingdom.
If the Lord tarries His coming, in August of this New Year we will celebrate the 60th Anniversary of the founding of Central Baptist Association. Please join me in praying that 2010 will be the most fruitful and productive year in our history! God bless you, our Churches, and Central Baptist Association!
