Look To The Cross
Look to the cross. and the resurrection of Jesus Christ. The shadow of the cross reminds us. Of our Lord's great sacrifice. Through Christ's death He saves us By His life we are set free. The blood He shed on Calvary cross paid the sin debt for you and me. We celebrate a resurrected Savior for He is no longer dead. Death and the grave couldn't hold Him. He got up just as He said! Hallelujah, Christ is risen! and our sin debt has been paid. He showed Himself alive to many and some saw the grave where He was laid. So look to the cross and be forgiven and be cleansed from all your sins. At the cross we'll find healing. for His blood makes us whole again.
Now he is coming back for you and for me, He is coming to set the captives of sinful earth free For we know not the hour, so are we prepared? Jesus is coming soon, make hast! A day is coming where no burdens shall be beared.
Secondly if we want others to know Christ we have to be an example them:It's All About Attitude
This should be our attitude : I woke up early today, excited over all I get to do before the clock strikes midnight. I have responsibilities to fulfill today. I am important. My job is to choose what kind of day I am going to have.My job is to witness to others and think as jesus would have thought. I. II. Today I can complain because the weather is rainy or... I can be thankful the grass is getting watered for free. Today I can feel sad that I don't have more money or... I can be glad my finances encourage me to plan my purchases wisely and guide me away from waste.
Today I can grumble about my health or... I can rejoice that I am alive. Today I can lament over all my parents didn't give me when I was growing up or... I can feel grateful they allowed me to be born. Today I can cry because roses have thorns or... I can celebrate that thorns have roses. Today I can mourn my lack of friends or... I can excitedly embark upon a quest to discover new relationships. Today I can whine because I have to go to work or... I can shout for joy because I have a job to do. Today I can complain because I have to go to school or... I can eagerly open my mind and fill it with rich new tidbits of knowledge. Today I can murmur dejectedly because I have to do housework or... I can feel honored because God has provided shelter for my mind, body and soul.
We as seventh day Adventist have the truth and we need to overcome anything that the devil is putting in our way to discourage us by Looking Beyond Limitations
There was an article in the May 5, in The Denver Post, written by Linda Usrey Long . It is a true story about a man named Lyle Bert, age 64. There is a lot more information than what is being shared here, but the main gist of the article is about how Mr. Bert was in an accident in 1965, while handling a grenade that exploded. He says: "I lost both hands, the eyesight in both eyes . . . My jaw was broken . . . My face and lips were burned. I had 124 penetration wounds in my chest and abdomen. I almost lost my right leg . . . Pieces of device went through my leg and through my abdomen. They amputated my hands . . . and I lost two-thirds of my stomach." While speaking to the Conference on the Handicapped a few years ago (in Santa Fe, New Mexico), Lyle Bert shared something very worthy of repeating:
"A person who has no legs can still achieve great heights; A person who has no hands can still grasp an idea; A person who has no sight can still have great vision; And a person who can't move can still lead."
Bible verse:
"But he said to me, 'My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.' Therefore I will boast all the more gladly of my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may rest upon me. For the sake of Christ, then, I am content with weaknesses, insults, hardships, persecutions, and calamities. For when I am weak, then I am strong." 2 Corinthians 12:9-10 (ESV) Let us be strong in Christs strength today brothers and sisters! Lets have an attitude of gratitude and spread his love to this sin-sick world! We cannot sit around and wait for the pastor of the church to evangelise It starts with you and I! May each of us look beyond our "limitations" and see what God can do through us!
