Quote of the Day 7/28/11

Help me, Lord, to remember that religion is not to be confined to the
church... nor exercised only in prayer and meditation, but that
every where I am in Thy Presence  - Susanna Wesley

The church is not a building; it’s the community of Christ.  Everywhere we go, God is with us and we are to represent Him in all respects.  Having just come back from Las Vegas I am reminded how easily sin can over take us.  In a city like Vegas, you can indulge any sin you desire.  The city feeds off of your temptations and you are rewarded for giving in to them.  You are told that there will be no consequences for your actions…”what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas.”  As Christians we know that this quote is not true.  All actions have consequences that stay with us, not in Vegas.

To be a light for Christ in such a sinful place is difficult to say the least, but not giving in and sharing God the lost brings a better, long lasting reward for all eternity!

Isaiah 43:10-11

“You are My witnesses,” declares the LORD,
“And My servant whom I have chosen,
So that you may know and believe Me
And understand that I am He.
Before Me there was no God formed,
And there will be none after Me.
“I, even I, am the LORD,
And there is no savior besides Me.
