Serve the Children...

Genesis 1:1&2
"1 In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.
2 And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters."

Why?
Why did God create this universe and our world?
Was God lonely? God is a Trinity and had love between the three parts. Loneliness doesn't seem right. Did God have an artistic bent that just needed expression? Creation does have a beautiful quality to it. Bravo! For the pleasing appearance of all creation. BUT, What if God's character is one of being a SERVANT? 

GOD is there for Adam and Eve. God is indulgent to the founding fathers of our faith. From the very beginning we see GOD'S actions are by design to send His only begotten Son to SAVE the world! Even as GOD is giving words to His prophets, like yesterday's verse from Isaiah; "...My righteous SERVANT..." Isaiah's prophecy is some of the most accurate and celebrated in getting the person and work of Jesus Christ correct!

Jesus died for our sins! Only Isaiah is looking forward in history to an event that will take place. You and I get to look back through history and see all the good that has resulted from the death and resurrection of our Lord and Savior! 

Family, friends, race, politics and extremes. We focus on the differences. What has our country come to? We seem tobmess things up in our communities. If we were trying to BREAK our community we couldn't do a better job. Jesus wants us to serve our neighbors not harm our neighbors. Jesus teaches us to be Good Samaritans. Sing and teach red, yellow and white all are precious in God's sight. https://youtu.be/p5LCvWddQHw

I will make you

Matthew 4:19&20 "19 And He saith unto them, Follow Me, and I will make you fishers of men. 20 And they straightway left their nets, and followed Him." In our "Follow Me" series, we study Jesus calling His disciples in the Gospel of Matthew. By the Sea of Galilee, a thriving fishing hub, Jesus saw Simon and Andrew casting nets as humble fishermen. His disciples were ordinary workers, not wealthy or educated elites. Jesus approached them and said, "Follow Me, and I will make you fishers of men." Remarkably, they immediately left their jobs to follow Him. This brief exchange conveys a profound truth: Jesus says, "I will make you." Only God can transform us to accomplish His purpose. We should often pray, "Help me, God," seeking Jesus' guidance to follow His plan for our lives.

God’s patience

2 Peter 3:9 "The Lord is not slack concerning His promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance." God did not immediately punish King Solomon when he allowed his foreign wives to build altars for false gods. Despite multiple compromises, God remained patient. Over time, Solomon’s endorsement of idolatry defied God’s covenant, leading to divine judgment, including the loss of the kingdom for his son. Some mistake God’s patience for indifference or inaction, but He follows His plan in His timing. If our nation, culture, church, or we ourselves stray like Solomon, we can repent and return to God’s path. And, should do so sooner than later! Amen!

we also...

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...
