“The Transformation….”

“The transformation of an individual leads to a transformation of relationships, of families, of communities, of nations. We long for and anticipate with joy the new creation of all things in Christ. Our mission is God’s mission.” – Robert Street ( Called to be God’s people)

Do you pray before you eat your meal?

The family prayed together before they had their lunch………………in the restaurant.

I have never met them before , but when I talked to them I found out, that we were fellow pilgrims on our way to our heavenly home. Praise the Lord! We had a long talk about spiritual things.

FOOTSTEPS!

In First Peter 1:20,21 the apostle Peter is writing:

“But if you suffer for doing good and you endure it, this is commendable before God. To this you were called, because Christ suffered for you, leaving you an example

THAT YOU SHOULD FOLLOW IN HIS STEPS.”

Intr.:

“Follow Me” is the command of the Lord Jesus Christ. In which places is Christ found? Think of the places. There are more, but I will only mention three here.

The Lord Jesus Christ bids us to follow Him:

A. To the FIELD of service.

Acts 10:38

“how God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the

–Holy Spirit and

–power, and

how he went around

–doing good and

–healing all who were under the power of the devil,

because God was with him.”

Acts 20:19

B. To the GARDEN of Gethsemane.

Luke 22:39-42

C. To the CROSS of Calvary.

Hebrews 13:12,13

End:

“……the gift of your time….”

“PLUNKET

whanau awhina

caring for young families”

“When you give the gift of your time………….you’ll get back as much as you give – maybe even more!”

The advertisement continues:

“Each year thousands of volunteers give their time, knowledge and skills to support the work of  Plunket and help us to achieve our vision of giving every child the best start in life. If you want to help make a difference by donating your time for a cause you believe in, Plunket is great place to get going.”

ALL OUR TIME COMES FROM THE LORD!

LET US GIVE ALL OUR TIME TO THE LORD!
