The most repeated command in the Bible is to “Praise the Lord”. We can obey this command by being happy, rejoicing and giving thanks in spite of what is going on in the world today. We cannot change what God has allowed to occur (nothing happens by chance, but everything happens for a reason), but we can trust in the Lord with all our hearts and lean not to our own understanding; in all our ways acknowledge Him and He will direct our path” (Prov. 3:5-6). Hence forth, for such a time as this, let us continually “Praise the Lord”. It would be beneficial to us to do so because it won’t allow us to have a spirit of fear, but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind(2 Tim. 1:7). If we keep our minds on Jesus, He will keep us in perfect peace. Our minds must be renewed in order for us to be transformed or changed into what God would have us to be. Romans 12:1 and 2 tells us “I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service.2 And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God. Therefore, in order for us to be able to stop doing what we know is not right, we must renew our minds with the Word of God Yes, we were born in sin and shaped in iniquity, but thank God we have been “BORN AGAIN” So let our light so shine in this dark world just like it did in the land of Goshen where God nourished and provided for His people in Egypt (Gen. 45:10). <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt'>Be encouraged by Pastor Rick Warren’s message below.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt'>God bless,<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt'>Dr. Joyce Taylor, VP, MSCC<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt'>Communities of Faith Committee Member<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><b><span style='font-size:11.0pt'>From:</span></b><span style='font-size:11.0pt'> Daily Hope with Rick Warren <<a href="mailto:connect@newsletter.purposedriven.com">connect@newsletter.purposedriven.com</a>> <br><b>Sent:</b> Wednesday, March 25, 2020 5:06 AM<br><b>To:</b> Joyce Taylor <<a href="mailto:dr.joycetaylor56@gmail.com">dr.joycetaylor56@gmail.com</a>><br><b>Subject:</b> Why Do You Do What You Don’t Want to Do? <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal> <span style='font-size:11.0pt'><o:p></o:p></span></p><table class=MsoNormalTable border=0 cellspacing=0 cellpadding=0 width="100%" style='width:100.0%;background:white' id="ko_imageBlock_3"><tr><td valign=top style='padding:0in 6.75pt 0in 6.75pt'><div align=center><table class=MsoNormalTable border=0 cellspacing=0 cellpadding=0 width=640 style='width:480.0pt;background:white'><tr><td valign=top style='padding:0in 0in 0in 0in'><p class=MsoNormal align=center style='text-align:center;line-height:115%'><a href="http://messaging.saddleback.org/ct/55329912:6_8THybNO:m:1:3025321960:6D19509C2A54CA47773FED562A27E3B8:r"><span style='color:#3F3F3F;border:solid windowtext 1.0pt;padding:0in;text-decoration:none'><img border=0 width=624 height=624 style='width:6.5in;height:6.5in' id="_x0000_i1062" src="cid:image001.jpg@01D60497.AC0B8FE0" alt="Image removed by sender.
