Pastor Sergio talks to us about the importance about giving thanks to God and the people in our lives. We cannot lost Thanksgiving. What always brings the presence of God is a thankful heart! We're building the presence of God with our singing and praising. Thankfulness is a prerequisite for entertaining God. When you express thankfulness to God, He reigns His goodness and mercy. Goodness and mercy always follow a person who knows how to remain thankful and give praises to God. Thankfulness is a characteristic of the new nature and who you are in Christ. Everyday we have to decide if we're going to be the new me or the old me in our life with Christ. The act of being thankful promotes positive mental health!

Pastor Tina tells us about how God keeps His promises and how we have to believe this. When we do, we are safe with Him! Our mental health effects our perception of who God is. The pain of unwanted experiences cause pain and make life difficult, which makes it hard to know God's character. As we avoid pain, we avoid God. It's through our pain that God brings healing and teaches us who He is and who we are! We cannot limit God with our own beliefs. We have to read scripture knowing God loves us and is teaching us in his Word. We can't be on the throne of our own heart, God cannot heal us when this is happening. We can't walk around unaware of our own selfishness and prideful ways. The Word of God is true, but when we live in a constant state of protecting ourselves from pain, the lies begin to move faster than the truth does. Truth and patience heals!

Pastor Sergio continues this series talking to us about how we cannot allow us to get away from the statutes that God has given. We can't let what we hear in the world influence us to allow compromise in our Christian walk! He also tells us about what the purposes of a Pastor are. There are so many misconceptions about what Pastors are supposed to do and not do, but we have to use our Godly discernment when we see and hear things in the world. We have to understand the value of the shepherds in our lives. Abuse can happen when we don't understand the purposes of our shepherds. When we have a better understanding of these, we allow ourselves to be sheep that are scattered or weak!
