The Journey of Life: To Be God's
people..."Embodying the love of Jesus Christ in the city and the
world"!
The trail is long, and we won't
arrive at our destination in this life. Still
we're on the journey with Jesus for the greatest thrill of our lives." Zig
Ziglar
"For
we are God's workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God
prepared in advance for us to do." Ephesians 2:10
"I don't know what your destiny
will be, but one thing I do know: the only ones among you who will be really
happy are those who have sought and found how to serve."-Albert Schweitzer
"Therefore, my dear friends, as
you have always obeyed-not only in my presence, but now much more in my
absence-continue to work out your salvation with fear and trembling, for it is
God who works in you to will and to act according to his good purpose."
Philippians 2: 12-13
"Being confident of this very
thing, that He who has begun a good work in you will complete it until the day
of Jesus Christ.: Philippians 1:8
"And let us consider how we may
spur one another on toward love and good deeds. Let us not give up meeting
together as some are in the habit of doing, but let us encourage one
another-and all the more as you
see the Day approaching." Hebrews 10:24-25
●"The Lord created each of us individually with different Spiritual Gifts, Passions, Abilities, strengths and a unique personality with different experiences. Helping each other put the pieces of the seeming puzzle together so we each can be most effective in our families, church, community and the world and finish our lives well and leave a legacy that gives glory to the LORD so when we stand before Him one day, we will hear, "Well done, my good and faithful servant."
Isn't that what we would like to hear one day?
Ability to see with the eyes of God, think with the mind of Christ, and walk in the power of the Holy Spirit.
"The thing is to understand myself, to see what God wishes me to do...to find the idea for which I can live and die"-Soren Kierkegaard
"God has created each of us with a unique contribution to make in our world and our times. No other person has our same abilities, motivations, network of friends and relationships, perspectives, ideas, or experiences. When we, like misplaced puzzle pieces, fail to show up, the overall picture is diminished."

Making the most of every opportunity
In the great orchestra we call life...
and you are alive to do them.
In the great Orchestra we call life,
you have an instrument and a song,
and you owe it to God to play them both sublimely."
Max Lucado: Quote is from his book, The Applause Of Heaven.
