This Sunday we will look at John 16:16-33 as we talk about “The Way to Joy, Peace, and Courage.” 

What a beautiful passage this is.  Read over it and pray over it in advance of Sunday morning.  

This Upper Room series is such a wonderful preparation for Easter, which is coming soon – April 17^th.  Be praying for that family member or friend that you will invite to meet you at church that day.  Pray for the Holy Spirit to work in their heart in these days leading up to Holy Week.  He can do supernatural work.  Our part is to do what we can do, which is… 

• Pray for them, faithfully, by name
• Share the good news of the gospel with them
• Invite them to come to church where they can learn more 

Three simple things, all within our control…and God does the rest.  

I’ll see you this Sunday, with a Bible in my hand… 

By His Grace, For His Glory, To The Nations,
