We Praise Our Amazing God for the Awesome Things He Is Doing

Wow!!!  What a start to 2007!  In Isaiah 57:15, we find these words:  "For this is what the High and Lofty One says, He who lives forever, whose name is Holy:  'I live in a high and holy place, but also with him who is contrite and lowly in spirit, to revive the spirit of the lowly and to revive the heart of the contrite.'"  When was the last time you were totally "wowed" by the greatness of God.

Praise the Lord for His Greatness

Even almost a month later, we are still celebrating the privilege that the Lord gave us to visit Isreal, the land of Jesus' birth, ministry, death, resurrection and ascension.  Not far from the Garden of Gethsemane on the Mount of Olives is the place where His feet will touch down once again when He returns to earth to set up His kingdom and build His temple.  What a blessing to be able to have visual images of so many of the places that we study and teach about in Bible Study classes and at the various churches where the Lord sends us.

Christmas - The Season of Celebration of our Lord's Birth

    "Today in the town of David, a Savior has been born to you; He is Christ the Lord." Luke 2:11.  May we never forget that this is truly a season of celebration as God sent His Son to be born into a humble earthly family of humble earthly means.  He was willing to lay aside all the glories of heaven that are rightly His to come to take on our humanity so we could partake in the divine riches of heaven.  As we reflect upon all the blessings that we have in Jesus, may we each joyfully celebrate the real meaning of this holiday season.  In Christ, we have forgiveness of sin, cleansing of unrighteousness, the privilege to approach the One who dwells in unapproachable light, and the blessing to experience love, joy and peace in the midst of the struggles and stresses of everyday life, to name only a few.
