“Go stand in the temple courts and tell the people the full message of this new life.”

Dear Friends, Every now and we go through our music collection and change things up to keep it fresh, as they say. This was the case with my CDs in my car. After hearing a song that I had not heard for some time, it really made me think. I played it over and over because I love the tune, but what really stuck out for me were the words that struck me repeatedly: “What about the change? What about the difference?”

(Angel’s commission to the apostles)

A C T S 5 : 20

Please keep in your prayers . . . ▪ ▪

I wondered how I have (and have NOT) been transformed. Would someone know that I’ve been seeking God by what I say and do? What about you? Are you doing the same old things that hinder your witness for Christ? I’m guilty of not remembering that I am a new creation. Yet we read in 1 Corinthians 5:17 “If anyone is in Christ, they are a new creation; the old has gone and the new has come!” Let this Bible passage echo in your life today. May you be renewed and changed by the grace of Jesus and the work of the Holy Spirit in God’s good timing! Let’s be challenged in our pursuit of and our desire to to reflect Christ in our journey of faith! It is our time to make a difference for His name! In His love and service,

We are on Facebook!
