The Shepherd's Fold Apostolic Church

Luke 9:51-62 Matthew 8:18-22 "No one, having put his hand to the plow, and looking back is fit for the kingdom of God." Once we decide we are going to follow Jesus we can not look back. Longing for the past will interfere with God's plan for you for the future. When a farmer is plowing, if he is looking backward, his furrows will not be in a straight row. We can't see ahead if we are always looking back. Sometimes we feel that we are in the dark when we are following the Lord. God doesn't give us a detailed itinerary of what He has planned for us.

It is no wonder God is not blessing this country, but more importantly- the Church has gotten so far away from the original purpose God had in mind. We are to seek Him- not pleasures, fame, money and  a good life....
