Thank You to Our Employees and Customers for Voting Us Top 3 Best Steak and Chicken Fried Steak and Catfish Don’t Forget to Vote in the Final Round Starting May 5th!

I

want to thank the staff for all their hard work and all our loyal customers for nominating Sodolak’s, I know I didn’t get here by myself. I beg of you to read this though.

We are all given a stage to be heard from in this life. Some small and some really large. John the Baptist made the wilderness his stage. He wrote no books, he built no Temple, he didn’t lead God’s people from slavery, he didn’t take God’s people into the promised land. But Jesus said of all who ever lived, there is none greater than John the Baptist. By America’s standards he had no great accomplishments and his life wasn’t grand, but he spent his life pointing to Christ. Day four the sun, stars and moon were created and yet in Genesis 1:3 God said let there be light. This is God bringing forth His Son to separate the darkness from the light. John 8:12 Jesus said, “I am

the light of the earth.” In Romans 1:20 we are told we have no excuse for not knowing God because we can see the earth and sky.

I pray for all to become children of God by accepting Jesus Christ as their Savior and Teacher. Each and every single one of us are given an eternal life, it’s up to us to decide on where we want to spend it. The blood shed by Jesus Christ forgave all our sins, but it doesn’t end there.

He wants to be King of our life, you just have to let the Holy Spirit in.

During His crucifixion there were two thieves crucified with Him, one on each side. One took notice of who He was so Jesus told the criminal, “I assure you, today you will be with me in paradise.” The other just mocked Jesus and chose not to acknowledge who Jesus was.

We all have a choice. I pray with much love for ALL to choose Christ so we can ALL be together in paradise.
