2 Cor 5:7 For we live by faith, not by sight Our fears and anxieties can be brought on by what we see or otherwise perceive with natural senses. When what we see does not match what we expect or hope, it can shake our faith. It is our physical/natural sight that blinds us from…

God Is Greater Than Whatever Difficulty You Are Going Through
Would like to encourage you with last Sunday’s message by Pastor Vince Burke at CCF Main entitled (God Is) “Greater Than” ___________________ (and then fill in the blank with whatever difficulty or problem you are going through) To go directly to the video that Pastor Vince played at the end of his message:
The Big Picture
Sometimes all we get are fuzzy clues. Sometimes the task for the day is just getting from one stitch to the next, one step at a time.

That’s what the bible describes as the duration of our lives. James 4:14b You are just a vapor that appears for a little while and then vanishes away. Hence, the prayer for wisdom to spend the finite, limited time…
