As creation reminds us of renewal and spring, the scriptures remind us of resurrection and new birth. Let’s continue to imitate Jesus. Stay centered on His throne. One congregant wrote to me about being centered on the throne and about casting our crowns before the Lord in humble adoration. His words reminded me how that should occur every day.
Are you being tenacious in your faith, like Polycarp?
Are you giving to God your best (vs. your leftovers)?
Is your life centered on the throne of God?
Are you personally being intentional about your connection with God?
This Sunday we focus on how our perception and understanding of who Jesus is impacts our daily life. Do you see Him as the victorious rider on the white horse, as the humble servant mounted on a colt, or somewhere in between? If you want to ready yourself for Sunday read Revelation 17-19 and John 12:12-19.
Let me encourage you to invite friends, family, and acquaintances with you to church on either Good Friday or on Easter Sunday. You’ll be receiving e-invites to use in multiple ways.
A moment of thanks and praise: as you drive onto the Forum campus this Sunday notice how wonderful the building and grounds are looking. Our deacons and those who serve in this area do such an exceptional ministry. Thanks for reflecting God’s majestic nature through His creation and your service. — Scott
