Holy Week

This song has been on my heart for a week now. It plays through my mind when I go to sleep and again when I rise. It shows dependency on God. I can't do this life without him guiding me. Pastor Tallo said last week, " We are all screw-ups, but it doesn't matter to God." It is where the grace comes in. Every hour I need his grace, but on my own I am a screw-up. I am so thankful that in Christ, there is holiness. In Christ, there is freedom. In Christ, I am not a screw-up.

This week is Holy Week. There is one thought that has not left my mind since I heard it on the K-love a few days ago. If I were to be arrested for my faith, would there be enough evidence to convict me. Wow!! Food for thought. Am I living my life in such a way that every deed shows the love of Christ in me. Sometimes the evidence is more internal rather than external. I care too much what others think about me. It says so much, and I know what you all are thinking. I should care more about what Jesus thinks than man. "In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven" (New International Version, Matt. 5:16). I guess it is time to stop hiding the light and SHINE FOR JESUS!!!!
