Leave Happy or Leave Sad
“Then children were brought to him that he might lay his hands on them
and pray. The disciples rebuked the people, but Jesus said, ‘Let the little
children come to me and do not hinder them, for to such belongs the kingdom
of heaven.’And he laid his hands on them and went away” (Matthew 19:13-
15).
Here Jesus defines what is innocent, pure, and good. The verses
following the above passage were consulted when a young man came to the
“good Teacher.” This man knew who Jesus was and even considered him the
source of eternal life (v. 16). He was told he needed to keep several of the Ten
Commandments, and to this he replied, “All these I have kept. What do I still
lack?” (v. 20). “Jesus said to him, ‘If you would be perfect, go, sell what you
possess and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven; and come,
follow me.’ When the young man heard this, he went away sorrowful, for he
had great possessions” (vv. 21-22).
Both of our audiences went away from Jesus that day. The children
departed blessed by the Lord, being of the Kingdom of Heaven. The young
man, however, went away sorrowfully from his access to eternal life. We
must be like these children in the presence of Jesus, and we will represent the
Church and realize eternal life. We will seek and save the lost of this world!
When you leave this world, will people be happy they knew you?
Happy you helped them know the Kingdom? Will you leave them hope that
they will see you again? We are all leaving this world at some point. Will we
leave happiness or sadness?
One day at the judgment, we will all be given an opportunity to be in
the presence of the Lord Jesus. Will you go into eternity blessed, being a part
of God’s kingdom, the church? Or will you go into it sorrowfully because you
put “stuff” before Jesus’ commands? At the end of the day, it is your choice
to…
Leave happy or leave sad.

Announcement from the Elders
By now everyone should be aware of the new,
more infectious strain of Covid-19 that is
affecting our nation. As we strive to worship
together, the elders strongly urge each of us to
wear a mask while at services to protect not
only ourselves from this new strain of virus, but
to protect our brothers and sisters who are at risk
of contracting the virus.
Church Directory Pictures
We are working on a new pictorial
directory and want to include everyone.
Please send a family picture as well as
individual pictures of everyone in your
household to the church office at
office@deerfootcoc.com
Pictures will be chosen by the office staff
for those who do not send pictures.
Thank you for your help!
