There has been a great deal going on not only in our country, but in our world. There is a verse of Scripture that reminds me of how we are to live and the example we are to set, even through times of crisis.
“1But Saul, still breathing threats and murder against the disciples of the Lord, went to the high priest 2and asked him for letters to the synagogues at Damascus, so that if he found any belonging to the Way, men or women, he might bring them bound to Jerusalem. (Acts 9: 1,2)
Before Christians were ever known as Christians we were known as people of “The Way”. I really like this title more than Christian, because it states something about your life and what really matters to you. The Way says no matter what I face I know that God is in control and I prove that by living a certain “WAY”! I don’t put my emphasis on this life, but the life that is to come. A life that is reflective in my worship to a living God not to things made with human hands. For example, right now there is a great excitement over the college teams that are moving forward to the final four, but can the same excitement be seen in what God is doing, or what He is going to do? I haven’t seen one person paint themselves up and go into a time of worship and yell their excitement for the King of Kings, (that would be kind of weird), but you get my point. I truly believe we would see many supernatural events happen if we, Gods people, would start living in such a WAY, that the world would see a people of God living the way and not just another group of religious, denominational, church people doing, but being so in Love, so in Worship, and bringing so much glory to God that there would be a movement that cannot be explained by human terms only by supernatural movement of the Holy Spirit. Who’s with me?
Just thoughts from a sinner on his way home,
