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.

Matthew 6:27 "27 Which of you by taking thought can add one cubit unto his stature?" Jesus has questions... Beginning our study this week with "Why Do You Worry?" Questions have always been a cornerstone of education, used to assess students’ knowledge, promote comprehension, and stimulate critical thinking. Well-crafted questions lead to new insights, generate discussion, and promote the comprehensive exploration of the subject. It makes sense that GOD would use questions VERY effectively. In yesterday's verses, Jesus asked "Are you not MUCH BETTER than birds?" His questions do not end there. In today's verse we read another one, "Which of you by taking thought can add one cubit unto his stature?" This is a sentence our culture needs to learn. No anxiety, no thinking, no wanting will alter our bodily height, or any other condition of our life that is fixed by God’s laws. We often wish things were different than they are, but our "wo...

Romans 6:3&4 "3 Know ye not, that so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ were baptized into His death? 4 Therefore we are buried with Him by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life." In our studies we are striving to understand God’s love and care. God's unconditional love for His followers, appreciating that we are part of GOD’S family! God is with us from cradle to grave. His divine presence is always giving us purpose and guidance. One of the most important milestones in the life of a Christian is baptism. When we are baptized, an indelible mark is made on our soul. This mark signifies a permanent transformation and dedication of the individual to God. The act of Baptism involves water and the invocation of the Holy Trinity. This ritual is seen as a symbolic washing away of original sin and a new birth into the life of Christ. Baptism is a foundational s...

praise Him

Luke 1:51-53 "51 He hath shewed strength with His arm; He hath scattered the proud in the imagination of their hearts. 52 He hath put down the mighty from their seats, and exalted them of low degree. 53 He hath filled the hungry with good things; and the rich he hath sent empty away." This is Mary's Magnificat. Beginning with verse forty-six Mary's responds to Elizabeth’s blessing is EPIC! In this poem Mary praises GOD for His blessing to her and His faithfulness to Israel.  Mary's Magnificat also highlights a series of reversals in which the proud are humbled and the humble are exalted! Which we read in today's verses; "He hath shewed STRENGTH with His arm; He hath scattered the proud in the imagination of their hearts. He hath put down the mighty from their seats, and EXALTED them of low degree. He hath FILLED the hungry with good things; and the rich he hath sent empty away." We should marvel at GOD'S choice of this poor young girl to be the m...
