Today…

 Today….

 This is the day that the Lord has made;let us rejoice and be glad in it.

Ps.118.24

Last night I watched a partial speech given by a young widow whose husband was killed before a crowd a few short weeks ago.  personally I had never heard about him until that day….

She said he would ask himself these three questions everyday…

“1.  What can I do for someone today?

2. What is something I can add value to the world today?

3. How can I honor God today?”

I thought of those questions this morning as I was reading this  portion of scripture…apparently this young man was getting death threats and still he stood his ground. His desire was to live for the Lord…just as David did…no matter the circumstances…

 The Lord is my light and my salvation;whom shall I fear?

The Lord is the stronghold of my life;

of whom shall I be afraid? 

When evildoers assail me to eat up my flesh,my adversaries and foes,it is they who stumble and fall. 

Though an army encamp against me,my heart shall not fear;

though war arise against me,yet I will be confident.

Ps.27.1,Ps.27.2,Ps.27.3”

“He ( the pastor) spoke to them of Jesus’ love and the need for every Christian to grow to be the kind of Christian whom God could use in His service. He spoke of the need to do something with their lives instead of wasting the time God gave people here on earth…”…Darlene Mindrup…

Each day is important…and each person has a purpose, a plan…

I Corinthians 12,14…

Romans 12…

 But God, being rich in mercy, because of the great love with which he loved us, even when we were dead in our trespasses, made us alive together with Christ—by grace you have been saved— and raised us up with him and seated us with him in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus, so that in the coming ages he might show the immeasurable riches of his grace in kindness toward us in Christ Jesus. 

For by grace you have been saved through faith. 

And this is not your own doing; 

it is the gift of God, not a result of works, so that no one may boast. 

For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them.

Eph.2.4-10

Thank YOU…
