Safe at Last

Proverbs 18.10 – Are you satisfied with the places run to when things are tough?  Or do they leave you still feeling a bit insecure.  There is a place where we can go when the events of life are overwhelming, a place where with confidence we can run to be safe.  Proverbs 18:10 gives us the answer.  It is not one of many, it is the only place to know we are secure.

Is This Really Possible?

Proverbs 31.10-31 HAPPY MOTHER’S DAY!  “Man may work from sun to sun, but a woman’s work is never done.”  So goes the old saying – and it’s true.  She is tireless.  This woman of noble character is a valuable wife, she is a vigorous worker and above all she is a virtuous woman.  Rise up and bless her.  Praise her often for she is rare and priceless.  But these qualities aren’t just for the proverbial woman, they are traits each of us should aspire to acheive.

Following Christ

Guest speaker and missionary appointee with ABWE, Todd Janes, shares from John 21:18-22 about some essentials in following Christ. 

The result of following Christ can include physical death, but certainly includes spiritual death as we die to self in order to follow Christ.  Read Romans 6.

There are requirements for following Christ.  An essential component is faithful obedience.  Following Christ requires focus.  It means following a unique path that God has especially designed for us (I Corinthians 12:18).  It also requires our full commitment.  (Mark 10:28-31; 8:34-38)

Finally, there is a reason for following Christ.  It’s ultimately for God’s glory as well as the driving force or purpose for missions.  Do all to the glory of God.  (John 21:19; 15:5)

Following Christ is a choice.  What will you choose today?

Missed by a Mile

Matthew 21.1-11 Have your ever missed the obvious?  The crowds on the day Jesus rode into Jerusalem missed all the signs pointing to the kind of Messiah Jesus was.  That didn’t matter.  They still clamoured for Jesus to rid them of Roman oppression.  Maybe, just maybe you have missed Him by a mile too.  It’s not too late.  See Him today as the Messiah who offers salvation.

Creator and Sustainer

Proverbs 3.19-20  Did God create the world?  Does He keep it going?  Solomon thought so and he taught his son that truth.  There is plenty of Biblical evidence and its supported in what you see around.  Man is without excuse.  If God can create what we see and then sustain it, how much more do you think God can take care of you and sustain you, not just physically, but spiritually?  He redeems, He restores and He provides.  Don’t take my word for it, check out what the Bible has to say.
