![]() Enduring faith is a subject matter the Apostle Peter tackled in the Bible book of 2nd Peter. Yep, he should know what it takes! He miserably failed at this. And many of our best lessons come out of our failures. Near the time of Jesus's death Peter's faith faltered badly. Out of that, he came to understand what it takes to have enduring faith--faith that lasts! Lord willing, over the next 3 weeks we will see what lessons Peter learned and how that can apply to our lives, so our faith will stand any test that comes our way. Join us at 9:30am Sunday mornings at Delphi First Assembly of God or online at http://www.delphifirst.org/livestream.html.

Today, May 5th (Cinco de Mayo), commemorates the Mexican defeat of France at the Battle of Puebla in 1862. This day remains a symbol of the Mexican people’s struggle against imperialistic forces. Yet in another part of the world, in Israel, May 5th is Holocaust Memorial Day. From sundown May 4th through sundown May 5th Israeli’s will remember their 6 million brothers and sisters who were murdered by the Nazi regime.
Today at 10am Israel time, all activities will cease; all traffic on the roads will stop as people remember what happened and pledge that it will never happen again. Yet, this day of remembrance comes when Israel is again surrounded—this time by terrorists, such as Hamas, ISIS, and Hezbollah—terrorists who have pledged Israel’s destruction. While we mourn with the Jewish people over their painful past, let us also pray for their protection from similar enemies today, and for their salvation through Jesus Christ. |
