LOVE TO TELL HIS STORY

READ:

Give thanks unto the LORD, call upon his name, make known his deeds among the people.
-1 Chronicles 16:8

THE BIBLE IN ONE YEAR:
Proverbs 30-31
2 Corinthians 11:1-15

When noted author, Studs Terkel, was looking for a topic for his next book, one of his friends suggested "death." While he was resistant at first, the idea gradually began to take shape, but its voice became all too real when Mr. Terkel's wife of 60 years away. Now the book was also a personal search: a yearning to know what lies beyond, where his loved one had just gone. Its pages are a poignant reminder of our own search for Jesus and the questions and concerns we have about eternity while we walk our faith journey.
I'm thankful for the assurance we can have that we will be with Jesus after we die if we have trusted Him to forgive our sin. There is no greater hope. It is now our privilege to share that hope with as many as we can. First Peter 3:15 encourages us: "always be ready to give a defense to everyone who asks you a reason for the hope that is in you, with meekness and fear." We have the opportunity from God, as David said, to "call upon His Name; make known His deeds among the peoples" (1 Chronicles 16:8).
The stories of so many people we love are not yet ended, and the privilege to tell them about the love of Jesus is a gift most precious. - Randy Kilgore
I love to tell the story; more wonderful it seems
Than all the golden fancies of all our golden dreams.
I love to tell the story, it did so much for me;
And that is just the reason I tell it now to thee. - Hankey

Let our days be filled with a longing - and the opportunities - to tell our story of Jesus.

MEAL OF REMEMBRANCE

The Holy Communion is a very significant meal. Unlike regular meals, it a meal of remembrance. When some people take this meal, they forget to heed the instruction in today's Bible reading where the Lord repeatedly said "this do in remembrance of Me". In other words, the meal reminds us of God's power of...More
