TURN TO JESUS

Mark 2:17
"When Jesus heard it, He saith unto them, They that are whole have no need of the physician, but they that are sick: I came not to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance."

We have been studying in First Kings chapter three. Where we learn about King Solomon's LEGENDARY wisdom! When we find ourselves in the position of King Solomon, able to do something to STOP the pain and grief may we have the WISDOM to stop it. When we find ourselves in the position of this REAL mother may we have the courage to sacrifice our rights that our loved ones may LIVE. We need to do everything we can to minimize the pain and grief in our world.

BUT, we are only human. Inheritantly we have our own "sickness." We might not always be WISE and COURAGEOUS. At which time we will feel "sick" with ourselves. Fortunately we have The Great Physician; pointed to in today's verse, "When Jesus heard it, He saith unto them, They that are whole have NO NEED of the physician, but they that are SICK: I came not to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance." 

Even if we find ourselves in the position of the OTHER mother; we messed up and we are so racked with pain, grief and jealousy that we are hurting everyone around us... Jesus came for YOU. Take your troubles to Him. Lay your problems at the foot of the CROSS. Jesus felt your pain and He received your punishment. He will heal your wounds. Believe in Jesus and TURN TO HIM and His ways.

The foot of the CROSS can be right where you at now. GOD does come to you. At some point you will WANT to and NEDD to WORSHIP HIM. The best place to do that is in CHURCH. You can find Holy Bible preaching and teaching churches everywhere. When you are in the Fredericksburg Texas area; please join us at one of the oldest Lutheran Churches in the region! It is beautiful! An old stone building with vibrant stained glass everywhere you look. And, ornately carved wood altar and flying pulpit! It is an amazing sight to behold. And, the people are VERY friendly and welcoming. The Pastor's are outstanding and outgoing. We look forward to seeing you in worship.

obedient unto death

Philippians 2:8 "And being found in fashion as a man, He humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross." Are you offended? The creator of the universe became incarnate and walked with people. He served people. He sacrificed Himself for you and me. Was this work beneath Him? Did He have to do this? Why is THIS God's plan? Who am I to question GOD'S plan? In this letter, Paul's Holy Ghost inspired writing tells us to put others’ interests ahead of our own. Paul tells us to live from a spirit of selflessness, compassion, and unity, reflecting the character of Christ and His love for humanity. A love that is truly "MIGHTY!" "MIGHTY" is one of the names the prophet Isaiah recorded for the Messiah. This is NOT the typical way to be "MIGHTY." Jesus is GOD, and all the glory and majesty that comes with that. And God came down from heaven to be born into the family of people. GOD lived with us and died for us. ...

the donkey

Luke 19:32-34 "32 And they that were sent went their way, and found even as He had said unto them. 33 And as they were loosing the colt, the owners thereof said unto them, Why loose ye the colt? 34 And they said, The Lord hath need of him." God's Grand Plan is your REDEMPTION! Since GOD can make that happen, getting a donkey to ride into Jerusalem is easy! Before the celebratory crowd is shouting "HOSANNA!" Jesus sent 2 Disciples to get a donkey. What is described in today's verses is exactly the way Jesus said things would unfold. Here we can see Jesus is in charge of ALL creatures. The people and the donkeys!  In the verses leading up to here we can read that the Disciples are not getting it. They are thinking the Messiah was going to take David's throne. Take Israel back from the Roman occupation. People did not understand God's Grand Plan. Even though Jesus told them all. On their way to Jerusalem they pass through Jericho. Zacheas was there, the...

encouragement

Ephesians 6:10 "Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of His might." We continue our study of the Lord's Prayer. This week, "Deliver Us From Evil." is also translated as "Deliver Us From The Evil One." We need to remain "sober" and "vigilant." A big part of this is studying the Holy Scriptures, like we are doing. We want to form a solid united front against Satan.  For the heart of our studies we turn to Paul's letter to the Ephesians. It was one of four letters Paul wrote while in prison in Rome. Paul cared deeply for the Ephesians. He lived with them for three years as this church was forming. He wants to encourage them and help them become successful. His words can help you and me today.
