Greeting FB and friends

So nice for you to join me on this post Lord’s Day Monday.  I was glad to see you all after being away last Sunday.  I want to thank Rev. Byars for standing in for me and all of you for your support. 

I was also happy to see the Church give something to those children returning to school on the year-round schedule to help them get ready for the school year.  We will be doing this again as those children on the traditional schedule prepare to return in August.  If you have a child you would like to receive the back to school help, give the name of the child and the member or supporter of the church recommending the child to Melanie Eddy.  The number of children we can assist is limited, so those children who are active in the Church will have priority if we run out of assistance. 

Speaking of running out, the message yesterday was about running out of life time.  We are all born with a limited amount of life time that we will consume every second of every minute of every day until there is nothing left.  Then we will die and be lost forever, unless God’s offer of unlimited life time through Jesus Christ is valid and we have made arrangements to take God up on His offer.  Seeing then that we can’t change our life time, we have nothing to lose and eternity to gain by switching from the limited life time we were born with to the unlimited life time in Christ. 

By switching, God essentially buys out our limited contract and replaces it with His own eternal one.  All we have to do to switch is be baptized, come to work for Jesus, and live our lives in harmony with His expectations.  So now that we know how to switch, the challenge for some is actually making the switch.  This I hope to address next.  And speaking of next, need I remind us all that we are all next to run out of life time.  So, let’s continue to prepare now while we still have some left.  Have a great day and week.  Hopefully, I will see some of you tomorrow at Walker’s Grove.

Blessings

Pastor Jordan
