"In your patience, possess ye your souls."
Luke 21:19
The scriptures often show accounts of God's people having to exercise great patience before they are taken to greater levels of blessings. A good example of this is King David. When he was young, Samuel the prophet anointed him and declared he would be King of Israel. Everything appeared to be falling into place. David slayed Goliath and became the captain of Saul's troops. He married King Saul's daughter, lived in the palace and did great exploits. The people even sang songs about his greatness. It sure looked like he was going to become king.
However, in an instant, the circumstances all turned against David. Saul became jealous and decided to kill David. David lost everything and had to flee for his life. The entire army of Israel was after him. At one of his lowest points he was captured by an enemy army and had to pretend he was insane to get away. David could have gotten angry and decided that Samuel's prophecy was a lie. He could have given into the circumstances, lost faith and concluded that God's promises weren't true or that they didn't apply to him.
Instead, David chose to honor God. He had faith in God's faithfulness. He didn't go by his feelings, he went by God's word. During this time he wrote some of the most beautiful psalms about how God provides and protects and honors His word and promises. David remained faithful. As a result, not only did David become King of Israel and enjoy his greatest blessings and victories, but through his bloodline, salvation came to the entire world. Jesus came into the world as a descendant of David.

Over the next few weeks, we shall be adding extensive new content and features to our site as we implement new and exciting technology. We've started this process with our "You're Invited" initiative. The purpose of this initiative is twofold; it encourages us to make a concerted effort to reach out and invite everyone to join us for Sunday services, and it also helps to make people aware that our Sunday service is now available for viewing on this site, or for download in an audio or video Podcast.
We welcome your feedback and suggestions on improvements we can make to this site, or features you'd like to see included. We also invite you to follow us on Twitter where we'll be tweeting whenever new content is available, and to sign up for our new email newsletter.
