Our personal history is a testimonyabout why we are what we are today. Every moment in our lives builds to become a story that is often quite interesting. Other people can hear about what we have done and be inspired in a positive way. Sometimes we hear a story about how someone has come through a crisis and vow never to allow that to happen. In every case, we ought to learn from other people’s experiences.
All of that is true until someone mentions the name of Jesus. Then people are often quick to reject the lessons learned because the story becomes more than just interesting: it is a call for a changed life.
There are a lot of reasons why people don’t want to change. Most of them boil down to wanting to continue living life “my way,” even if that way is destructive and self defeating. They just can’t believe that although Jesus sometimes does ask you to make some changes, He will remain standing right there with you as you make those changes.
The personal testimonies of Darrell and Lois Wenzek were a powerful reminder of how Jesus changes lives. They were inspiring and we welcomed them into membership as is our custom. You Can let Jesus change your life too – today. He can do it!
On other sujects, we will have a Men’s Breakfast at 8:30A on Saturday May 9 at the Deer Lagoon Grange. Please come and enjoy wonderful food and great fellowship.
And please remember Tom Johnson will be with us again during the Sunday School hour at 8:30A on May 10 – MOTHERS DAY. He will address the subject of ethics.
God bless you and keep you this week.
