A replay from Sunday Nov. 7th that spoke a bout something very significant and special happened over 2000 years ago. Our sin debt was paid in full because "He who knew no sin became sin for us that we might become the righteousness of God, in Him (II Cor. 5:21).

God comes right in the context of our everyday lives. The key is to believe in Him and to be aware of His presence (Heb. 11:6).

The greatest expression of love which cannot be topped or matched was the giving of His only begotten Son, Jesus Christ, whereby everlasting life would be possible for all who believe and live for Him (John 3:16).

Sometimes we can see the magnitude of our desires and feel as though we will never get there or the results will be delayed. However, everything begins with a step. Scripture Reading, Luke 8:43-48.

Walking involves the process of taking steps toward what we desire, which means we must keep our eyes on our heavenly Father that we may be doers and not hearers only (James 1:22).

It's easy to murmur and complain or to give attention to all of the minuses in our lives. Here's a thought. How about being thankful today? (I Thess. 5:16-18).

How we view situations is how we respond to them. The key is to remember that whatever is negatively confronting you it is outside of you. Don't get pulled into it. Keep your heart with all diligence (Prov. 4:23).

Sometimes being present in a situation is all that's needed. We don't have to attempt to solve or remedy everything. There are times when our presence is more than enough, which provides a strong comfort and consolation in the lives of others.

Let's prepare on Sunday evening by centering ourselves with God and asking for His help to counter a sluggish start to Monday morning. Proverb 24:27 (ESV) says, "Prepare your work outside; get everything ready for yourself in the field, and after that build your house."
