Community Church of Elkhorn

This was the emphasis of our sermon on Sunday.  James 5:13-20 has this theme as an emphasis in the Christian life.  We are confronted daily by all kinds of difficulty and all kinds of trials.  If left to ourself we often become depressed or angry because we feel so overwhelmed. But God continually tells us to draw near to Him. 

I challenged the congregation to re-read this text and write a reminder to themselves on a 3x5 card and place one on a mirror or microwave, One on the dash of their car, and one on there person in a pocket or pocketbook.  All week long remind yourself to draw near to God then on Sunday we'll see what happened as we share with one another what took place during the week as we Drew Near to God.

Draw Near to God and He will Draw near to you James 4:8
