...NEWS FLASH...

God Loves You "Unconditionally"!

Quiet Sermon
A member of a certain church, who previously had been attending services regularly, stopped going. After a few weeks, the pastor decided to visit him.
It was a chilly evening. The pastor found the man at home alone, sitting before a blazing fire. Guessing the reason for his pastors visit, the man welcomed him, led him to a comfortable chair near the fireplace and waited.
The pastor made himself at home but said nothing. In the grave silence, he contemplated the dance of the flames around the burning logs. After some minutes, the pastor took the fire tongs, carefully picked up a brightly burning ember and placed it to one side of the hearth all alone. Then he sat back in his chair, still silent. The host watched all this in quiet contemplation. As the one lone ember's flame flickered and diminished, there was a momentary glow and then its fire was no more. Soon it was cold and dead.
Not a word had been spoken since the initial greeting. The Pastor glanced at his watch and realized it was time to leave. He slowly stood up, picked up the cold, dead ember and placed it back in the middle of the fire. Immediately it began to glow, once more with the light and warmth of the burning coals around it.
As the pastor reached the door to leave, his host said with a tear running down his cheek, "Thank you so much for your visit and especially for the fiery sermon. I shall be back in church next Sunday."
We live in a world today, which tries to say too much with too little. Consequently, few listen. Sometimes the best sermons are the ones left unspoken.
If you don't stand for something you'll fall for anything!

MEDITATION Verse: I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus. Philippians 3:14
Thoughts:
The way to walk a tightrope is to keep one's sight on the goal, not on the ground or what is behind.
The way to walk with Jesus is to keep our eyes on the goal, His victory waiting for us when He returns, not on the ground (our failures) and not what is behind (our accomplishments).
The goal of the Christian walk is to keep walking toward Jesus until we walk with Him in heaven.
Prayer:
Lord, I look forward to the day when You call me by name and walk hand in hand with me. Until that day, help me fix my eyes on what You want me to be and not what I've done.
By Your grace I ask it. Amen.

SERENITY PRAYER
GOD, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change,
the courage to change the things I can,
and the wisdom to know the difference.

"SEEK HEAVENS GATE IN '08"

THE GOLDREN RULE
In everything, do to others what you would have them do to you, for this sums up the Law and the prophets. (Matt. 7:12)

We can change the world with The Golden Rule today, by treating others with grace and not with justice or judgment.
