Ephesians
3:20 "Now to Him who is
able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think..."
Even though I know that life situations can turn on
a dime, I am constantly surprised when that happens. Yesterday organ
technicians came to check out the sanctuary organ which was not in tune. They received a surprise. The company’s e-mail to me detailing their findings and
suggestions said in part, “While expecting to tune, they found
electrical wires that were rotten both in the console and running to the organ
chambers. These wires are an extreme fire danger due to the
disintegration of the casing. They placed a tag on the end of the
electric cable advising not to plug in. In addition they found an amplifier
with a good bit of noise that is due for replacement. One of the amplifiers
capacitors are leaking which is very normal for this age.” The organ is 47 years old and has served up
well but the cost of repairs would be higher than purchasing another used Allen
organ.
The music will go on as we have pianos in the sanctuary, but
our church leaders will need to make decisions about which direction to go and
if to have a special campaign to raise funds. Of one thing is certain, God can
do more than we think or ask. God is an
always present help in time of trouble. Are you having an unexpected hardship
in your life? Turn your troubles over to
God and trust Him.
Holy God, we ask your continued blessing and direction in
all aspects of our lives. We praise you for your great love and mercy. In Jesus’ name we pray. Amen.
Blessings,
Paige
