King of Kings Lutheran members
sharing the love of Jesus
Members of King of
Kings Lutheran Church made
visits to downtown Jasper
businesses on Friday, Febru
ary 11 to express their appre
ciation to the owners and
their employees for their pos
itive contributions to the
community. The members
delivered hand-crafted Valen
tines, reminding people of
the source of love and the na
ture of true love - God and
the gift of His Son Jesus for
the sins of the world.

Overcoming fears at Mountain Light Sunday
Mountain Light UUC live-streams our
Sunday services on Zoom, but we have seat
ing available in our sanctuary, as well. Visit
our website (mluuc.org) for information on
what to expect during the pandemic.
On Sunday, February 28, we welcome
Rev. Scott Dillard. His sermon will be "Over
coming Our Fears." We all have fears, those
things that hold us back from achieving what
we would like to achieve. If we give in to our
fears, we stay frozen in time and cannot
move forward.
There is, however, a path forward when
we confront our fears and trust not only in
our abilities but in the larger forces that guide
us and help us through these difficult con
frontations. We can call this our faith in God
or our ability to tap in to transcendence, but
it is always there and available to us.
Mountain Light UUC, 2502 Tails Creek
Road (GA-282 West), in Ellijay, welcomes
guests of all faiths, ethnicities, and gender
identifications. Our worship service begins at
10:30 a.m. Join us at 10 for fellowship.

The First Day
on the Job
By Pastor Asa Dockery
Luke 11 : 9 - 10, "So I
say to you, ask, and it
will be given to you;
seek, and you will find;
knock, and it will be
opened to you. For
everyone who asks re
ceives, and he who seeks
finds, and to him who
knocks it will be
opened.” -NKJV

Believing in
Your Heart
I “For it is with your heart that
you believe and are justified, and
it is with your mouth that you
profess your faith and are saved. ”
Romans 10:10 NIV
I Ir ¥ Nie heart has its reasons,
' * I which reason does not
.A. know. We feel it in a
thousand things. It is the heart
which experiences God, and not
the reason. This, then, is faith: God
felt by the heart, not by the
reason." -Blaise Pascal
Our intellects are tools for
navigating our way through the
world. When material objects cease
to function, or function well, the
intellect goes to work seeking
solutions to our problems. But
when applied to the most
important things, the eternal
things which faith and hope deal
with, the intellect can often lead us
astray, or convince us that we know
things which we really do not and
cannot know. The intellect cannot
tell us decisively whether there is a
God or a future life. In matters of
faith, it is always what the Bible
calls the heart which rules,
something in the core of our being
which contains the seeds of
religion and a sense of the divine.
The heart feels that there must be
a God (or gods) simply through
the works of creation. Who does
not feel a sense of awe when
contemplating the starry heavens
above or any of the spectacles of
nature which we rightly say are
awe-inspiring? It is these
experiences of the heart which
cause religious folks to think that
their irreligious brethren are
culpable for their unbelief. The
agnostics and atheists among us
answer that they are only relying
on their “God-given” intellects, to
which the theists respond that that
is precisely the problem. Your
intellect can only give you sound
advice and counsel in worldly
matters, as it were, and for the
other-worldly, you just have to
rely on your heart.
